do they make kent cams for a 1.3 HCS?

i was out wit a bloke with a 1.1 fez last nite and he was pulling away from me, even tho mine is a 1.1 but with a 1.3 lump! He thinks his has kent cams but aint sure.....i didnt think they were made for these engines.

dont think they do. is possible has a uprated cam but HIGHLY unlikely simply because of the design of the engine.

its more likely to be the case that urs isnt right somewhere :oooh:

From what I've learned with changing a cam on an HCS the only ways to do it is to lift engine out or remove the wing (easier to take engine out tho)

alot of work for not much of a gain.

If your handy with a spanner and you've got an engine hoist go for it but if not its not worth hassle.

Just give it a service (oil,ht leads,filter and spark plugs) and maybe get a mobile tuner guy to have a fiddle.

and yes they do make kent cams for 1.3's
