Hi All,I am looking into some cams to go with my throttle body setup. I have been told I can run these Newman 300s with pocketed pistons but could someone confirm if this is correct please? http://www.newman-cams.co.uk/Newman-Cams-Peugeot-306-GTI-6-All-Race-Camshafts-PEUT300468-PH5_25197_15_3606_18911.jsp I am slightly surprised you can run them without having to do any other head work Cheers  ________________________________________ Phase 1 silver track car335i daily |

lol.nope, a ph2 264 degree cam is the wildest you can go. PH4 286 degree cams need double valve springs and much deeper cutouts than you can make in a standard piston, and much more than a 10.8-1 compression ratio, Ph5 300 degree cam is a solid tappet profile. I would suggest not listening to whoever told you they would work. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

No way will they go in a standard engine with standard pistons pocketed. Also there for solid lifters only so would need head work My engine has Newman ph2 and with the piston pockets enlarged for safe timing Edit Welsh beat me to it |

Really good price though if anyone is looking for some £120 Cheers WP as always ________________________________________ Phase 1 silver track car335i daily |

yeah, it kinda spirals once you go past the standard modified piston limitation, there is no PH3 cam, its straight into a PH4.double valve springs £307. Omega Pistons £400. Good forged rods £600. or add solid tappets at £391 and go full retard. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
