Now armed with the tools to find true TDC and having to adjust cam timing due to significant head shave, i cannot find the correct timing specs to adjust the toda cams back to centre before tuning.
Can anyone provide the timing specs that are provided with camshafts?
Toda have not responded to previous emails and i acquired the cams second hand from project.r a while back without the timing card.
Any info or links would be appreciated, thanks.

The correct timing depends on what shaped power curve you have, just get your tuner to dial them using real relevant data, torque/hp at the wheels.

Re: Toda 256/9mm camshaft timing specs
You dont get old skool timing cards dealing with twin cams, BP engine isn't an old rocker style single cam big block. You dial them in the way you want them. Did you buy them with the cam wheels also? I forget. Just install them as you would a stocko set of cams and then adjust as dann said.

Yeah, i picked up the cam gears also. Now running fidanza cam gears.
When i checked clearance by putty on the pistons, the cam gears were dialed through 6 degrees advance and retard to check range of clearance with no issues. I'd like to set cams to original specs and street tune a decent base map to limit dyno time.
