Cam Gears

[Burrito06]

Are there any cam gears that can pass smog

Not that I know of.... I have blitz and I know they don't... As a matter of fact my headers don't either.... If you get pulled over and checked for that crap your pretty much screwd over anyway, cuz the cop will find something to give you a ticket for.

If you set them to 0 I don't see why they wouldn't.....

I'm not trying to be an a$$, but what would be the benefit if any?

On a side note, I agree set at 0 they should pass.

Well there would be 0 benifit at all! But I have mine set at 0 now anway. Nitrious won't allow advanced timing unless you have built internalz, and internals are on my things to do list.

You have Ignition Timing and Cam Timing confused, two TOTALLY different things. Nitrous doesnt like Ignition Timing advance, and since we have a distributorless ignition system, only way to advance timing is with an aftermarket ECU. Advancing the intake cam timing with cam gears would cause for the intake cam to open sooner causing for less overlap, causing for more nitrous to enter the cylinder (in theory).

Cam Timing = timing of the cams (when valves open and close), controlled by cam gears

Ignition Timing = timing of the spark plug firing (controlled by ECU)
