I'm sure I can leave any chicken soup type questions to my protégés on here. Some of them are coming along quite nicely now

Anyhoo, what can I help with?

..nothing too exciting, CVH questions, pity your site is down as that was a good read..

OK car has been laid up, I'm wanting to ensure good start up lubrication from the off, what would you recommend for the cam lobes themselves to ensure they stay in the shape that was intended prior to oil getting up there?

Do you [or anyone] know if there are any haynes manuals still going for these engines, mine came from a cvh 1598 carb XR2 C reg...

On the performance front, I don't think there's much more to be done, the head [the "proper semi hemi type] has been quite heavily worked, valve guides, ported etc, oh and it has also been skimmed itruns a kent cvh22 cam, moderately high lift, with about 4 deg of overlap, [cam timing is really important here it should still be set up right but who knows what the grease monkies have been up to, the vernier shouldn't have been touched since it was set up] I just want to get it running and check oil pressure, flow, get it warmed up properly and see where we are etc, etc..

cheers

Mo.

Turn 7, yes thats what I intend to do thanks guys.

Rally Ax...almost right but a letter out, it was DM (Danny Morris) who did the article on CVH cams not DV. We dug out a copy of the mag, November 1992!

Good stuff, any reason they only took the two rh cams above 6k??
