Bit muffled but it was my mates sh*tty old phone, and that was with the Quiet XForce system... 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/43875-atomic-cams/page/5/#findComment-1377941 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boosted1 Member 346 Member For: 16y 5m 3d Posted 06/04/13 05:58 AM Share Posted 06/04/13 05:58 AM well Atomic may be new shafts, but crow are def regrinds! we have had alot of problems with shimming cams as the lifter recess in the head are all different depths. meaning they all require all different sized shims.the stage 4+ cams are huge compared to fg cams. I dont think you can use vct on them! stage 4 is the max you can go with using the vct.here ya go jet, bit of reading for ya http://www.atomicperformanceproducts.com/camshafts.html Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/43875-atomic-cams/page/5/#findComment-1377982 Share on other sites More sharing options...
