Anyone have experience or thoughts on the 4 degree cam offset key?

I have things apart at the moment doing a major reseal on my early 85’ and have been thinking about it.

Where have you sourced the key and what kind of work did you have to do to the key so it would fit? I have heard it’s not a good fit straight from the package.Is the throttle response truly noticeable?

Are there any negatives to this mod?

Rats! I just bought one from 928Motorsports today. $40 shipped. Oh well. I truly appreciate the offer! Maybe there is someone else you can share with on here.

Just curious, did you not like the cam key?

I’m a gulf coast resident myself, just across from you. Batten down the hatches, stay safe and enjoy the hurricane party tonight! Only Hurricane zone people know about those!

Never used it. I got a 944S2 before I had the chance, and I can set my own cam timing without a key (from my understanding). Lol

Also FR, you ever been to Gulfcoast Autocross? GCAC
