Can you post a link for these cams? Just from the picture it looks like they have a ton of duration like what would be used on a high rpm race motor.
Please post a link, Thanks
After you install the sprockets correctly maybe the cams will be in time with the motor. Bad news is with both lobes pointing straight up your #1 cylinder should show compression. Maybe the cams are not a correct fit for your valve stem lengths so the valves are never closed.
I would install the old cams and do another compression test, but that is just me.
That all I got right now using the pictures you supplied |
Sorry for the late reply,
Yeah i was thinking about that too. To install the old cams back into the engine. Not sure if i mention this, but these are

I know i should be getting after market valve stems and springs which are already in the cart (have not purchased yet) but it said they are OEM compatible.. maybe you are right about the valve stems?
If that is the case, which one should i get?
