Where to buy 2.0L cams/ Adj. cam gears - SRT Forums

Edgehold · 05-08-2008, 04:05 PM

I'm looking into doing the 2.0L cams, but I don't know where to get them from. Don't tell me a from a 2L DOHC neon either. I've read that people are getting them for $50, but from where? Also, what are the best cam gears, I've heard AEM's are good but I can't find any in the FS section. Are the findanza gears easy to adjust when your on the dyno? thanks for the help.

you get them from a 2.0 neon. where the hell do you think people get them from?

and AEM's are like 405 new.

fidanzas suck. but can be had for like 150-170. tunings a bitch w/ them.

there is a guy selling some red fidanzas for 110 shipped in the for sale section...

Eclipseguy12 · 05-08-2008, 05:02 PM

stock neon 200

Thanks. Just checking. People saying they cost $50 is what threw me off. My friend has a blown 2.0L with a good head and I was going to try and get them from him. Didn't know if anyone sold them new or used. Where can you get the AEM's as their site doesn't list anything. Which vendors on here carry AEM?

Free cams + 110 for findanzas = cheep power FTW

did you buy the fidanzas??

Edgehold · 05-09-2008, 03:07 PM

not yet, but that would be cheep. I asked TKmotorsports if he carries the AEM's and how much. Still waiting to hear. I guess I could spend less on the Fidanzas and pay more when I'm dynoing or pay more for AEM's and less for the dyno. How much would it cost for an hour on a dyno to tune the cams?

Drastic_Said · 05-09-2008, 03:30 PM

roughly 100/hr to tune.

and prolly around 180/hr for a tech to tune it for you.

i got word from Jeff...the guy that makes the spacers for the AEMS to fit, that aem discontinued the 3bolts a while ago...

how much would 2.0 cams go for?

Drastic_Said · 05-09-2008, 04:35 PM

"Suck" is such a hash term. I dislike tuning them, but the new models work fairly well and aren't prone to the old-versions' breaking routine. I wish I went the AEM route, but they work fine for tuning. I agree, though, they are a bitch to tune with their excessive amount of hex bolts.

IMO the price difference isnt worth it being a little easier to tune. its not like you tune every day.....

the difference will be made up on the dyno time.

2 adjustments cost me like 25min.

3 pulls in an hr w/ 2 adjustments is a waste.

and aem has room for the cover...

i got my aems for $110 w/ spacers used..

Well in all fairness, when I did mine on the dyno, I would only keep 3 of the hex bolts in until I got a cam 100% dialed in; then I'd threadlock all of them and torqued them to spec.

what's the difference between the old and newer style fidanza cam gears?
