Bought a set of Newman PH3s the other day.
I fitted them, but i set them to standard timing, so i was getting some awful clicking noises.
I ripped the head off, and thankfully there's no damage (i think the hydraulic lifters stopped the valves from bending.

Turns out i have to set the inlet cam to 110deg after TDC, and the exhaust to 110 deg before TDC.
How do i go about doing this?

Anyone got a link to a guide, or some pics???? :D

what on the inlet/exhaust cam needs setting to 110 BTDC and ATDC. peak lift?

You used a dti guage to find the position of the bottom end tdc, then a dti gauge to find peak lift on the cam.
