The "vernier" adjustment allows you to advance or retard the cam timing + - 8 degrees in 2 degree steps, to allow for any manufacturing variations in the camshaft. This shouldnt be an issue with the cams I am having made (unlike some cheap type 1 aftermarket I have heard of that can be miles out) but you do need to have a degree wheel and know what you are trying to achieve.
Set it to zero and all will be well.

Iron sticks with blobs on them. All cams look the same to me ;)

Ah, well, in that case I've got a lovely one here that I'd happily swap for one of yours. It'll look just the same, I promise.

Perhaps I should have said "all NEW cams" ;)

Here you go:

UK made cams, US made gear adaptors. Highest quality, all the way.

My bank account is bracing itself. I'll take one as soon as you've got one to sell. If that's not one of this first batch, are you still talking of a couple of weeks for the next batch?

Currently 2-3 weeks lead time from time of order, but this is variable and beyond my control.
I will get a final cost worked out asap. Promise.

Ok wbx fans, form an orderly queue....

My lovely new WBX-specific hydraulic cam kits complete with vernier adaptor and fixings, instructions *and* your cam wheel removed (just post your dead one over well wrapped) £195 inc return post by DHL mainland UK and taxes paid...

Start a list if you are in, only 4 available initially, then I will re-order another batch.

I think that sounds like a b$%%&y good price for all that. Take it I'm on the list Ian?
