got a pair of brand new kent cams off ebay a while back from infinicar, decided im going to get them fitted, might as well. anyway im not using kent pulleys due to the experiences of some people on here with them. so question is can i use any vernier pulleys with them, ie piper, or catcams etc. will they be able to time the kent pulleys ok? the plan is to visit chipwizards after having them fitted for a remap to get the best out of them. cheers.

Yup any vernier pulley is compatable.

Catcams pulleys retail at around £220 inc delivery.

I can give you a 10% discount on that so they would be £198 to your door.
