My cam belt will be due for replacement soon. I want to get kent cams fitted at the same time. Does anyone know a good garage in yorkshire who could do the work.
Ps will any other garages provide fitting warranty when fitting after market cams?

Big grin

any garage should be capable of fitting them Thumbs up

you need to be 100% sure that the head has never been skimmed though.

Both the PT80 and PT81 can make the valves hit the pistons if its been skimmed. Really, really close tolerances, in fact probably too close to be safe. There is a thread on it (max lift @ TDC).
