Turbo camshafts...

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knew of any companies that made turbo spec camshafts for the T20/22 series engines? I was hoping that I won't have to get them custom made. Kinky, garrett, got any ideas on this one? Was thinking about the Z20LET camshaft but haven't even been able to find specs on it. I am trying to get the most amount of lift and duration possible, while trying to maintain 0 valve overlap. Anyone got any ideas?? Shoot em my way. Thanks, Paul M

QED is the company that I've used more than any other, they have been the most cooperative. I have the QED catalogs and price guids but there not on hand right now. I'll post prices and applications ASAP.

there is also Piper, they make good stuff for the ZLET as well as a "compation strenght" timing belt but I can't get any responce from them most of the time.

Cool. When I went to their site, I saw the parts listed but no prices. I would more than likely be looking at upgrading the valve springs, retainers and locks(if possible) as well as the camshaft. Not sure if this engine uses cam followers like the SOHC engine does, but if they do I will probably try to pick them up as well.

the DOHC uses tapets that run directly on the cam. the good thing about the valve train is that most of the parts can be take from other applications based on specs and that can all be found here (in the States).

here is a link to here I posted last years catalog, the prices should be the same. CLICK HERE

Ahhh now I finally know the price of the adjustable cam gears! thx garrett. Would the Q405H "mild" cams they offer be good for turbo application?
