Cam and Valve Spring Question 16v

[brian_wagner at sbcglobal.net (Brian Wagner)]

Ok just got off the phone with Delta and they will only grind a 260 profile on the intake cam, the exhaust is already a 268 or 270. The expected gain per delta is 10~12% over bhp, which is reasonable. The gain would be comprable to a euro intake and the cost is $95 for the regrind and shipping both ways. Also it is a plug and play installation nothing needs to be changed in the head. So for say $130 a 10~12% can be had on the 16v, seems to be well worth it and I will be trying it very soon.

I believe it is $90 per cam so $180 for a set of 16v's. To check them out go here www.deltacam.com.

still have the question on the 260 and 268 will I need to change the spring?
And what is every ones thought on an assymetrical grind (intake being larger
than exhuast or vice versa)?
