The same cam grinds can be different right out of the box so the process of degreeing a cam is an accurate way to determine if the cam is opera-
ting the valves in proper timing with piston travel.The info you collect can help you get the most power from your engine by adjustment of cam
and ignition timing. Your new cam should have come with a cam card detailing its specs. That being said, installing the cam correctly and
matching the crank and cam gear timing marks most
likely you'll be fine and no further measuring would be needed. It's just that cam degreeing helps accuracy in tuning your motor. If you ever install a "performance" cam this will definitely be something you'll have to do.I think you're getting the best advice fron Twisted6 and popa-
banjo.
