Default Porken's 32V cam timing tool

I want a 32v cam timing tool from Ken, but need others to make it cost effective for Ken to produce a batch. They would be $80 each if we can get 10 people interested.

Here is a past thread that has more information: https://rennlist.com/forums/928-forum/178319-32-valve-cam-timing-tool.html

Ouch!

Here's a more recent thread on the 32V tools: https://rennlist.com/forums/928-forum/190138-32-valve-timing-indicator-kits.html

If the 16V conversions and 32V indicators get together, there may not need to be as many of each. The main cost is the laser cutting.

Here's the recent 16V thread: https://rennlist.com/forums/928-forum/259773-porken-s-16v-cam-timing-tool.html

I will need deposits to even start the process. I'm not making anything more 'on spec'.

Umm, I am going to, and get them powder coated too. I figure practicing on this motor is better than practicing on the "other" motor

Getting PorKen's setup is great for making changes after you verify the timing with the dial setup.
Hope to orders come through.

I'm in for one. Where when and how??

I just got my intake manifold and cam covers back from RS Performance Coatings and they look great. Powder coat silver with a clear on top.

Once I get the initial cam timing, I don't want to have to pull the covers off to tweek the settings.

Let me know,

Thanks,
John Fagerlund

I am trying to get a group buy for Porken's 16v tool, but having 32V orders also help with the cost. So far, Ken tells me I am the only one that has sent a deposit for either the 16v or 32v tool. Can all the interested parties please send him a deposit so that he has an accurate number to build and get them started?

Thanks

Again, the price should be around $80, I'll need a $40 deposit from enough folks before I ask for a quote from the laser cutting shop.



PayPal ID: 'cams@mrtubby.net' or email me for checks.

I have a few more days of work to finish the current lift bar orders, then I'll have more time for the cam tools again.

What... seven months is pretty good for me.

I was busier than I expected during the summer. Then the liftbars took over my 'shop'.

As soon as I have working PorKensioners in both cars for testing (hopefully by the end of the week), I will start drafting the 'New, Improved', 32V tools.

I'll post a thread when I'm ready for deposits and/or a headcount.

I am in for an $80 cam timing tool.

Yes old thread, I will shell out when your ready to get them produced and actually pay your supplier. Otherwise honestly i would probably pay you and completely forget about the whole thing.
