Rootes R20 camshaft picture

This was IMPorted for the race Imp built up here in Cape Town over 2011/12 then exported to Scotland, where it came from originally of course!


The suppliers also sent the new tappet buckets and camshaft bearing set.



Setting the R20 camshaft up on a 998cc Imp Sport 180 series cylinder head, the timing is being set, note the dial gauge.



Set the lift on number one inlet valve to 0.113" of an inch with the number one piston
on TDC. Check the series of holes in the drive sprocket, this was Rootes Competions answer to easier camshaft timing over the Imps standard sprocket single hole.


Note the TDC on the steel pointer ( top dead center )
