Vernier timing set
Turbo Mini Forums

I have been keeping a lightweight steel vernier timing set for my engine for ages, and looked at it the other day and the cam sprocket bore is way to big for a mini cam :(

It measures 28.5mm (probably 1.1/8"), anyone know what it could be for? I thought it must be a Rover V8 but tried it on a spare cam and not that either, sprockets are the same size, and crank one looks the right size...

Any way of running it on a bush or popping a new centre piece in? Gutted I cant use it as it's another ton town the drain if I gotta buy another set.

Oh, no manufacturer marks either but looks the same as most steel lightweight ones, lots of holes!

you have fluffed up sadley

yes you could bush it down but not advisable on that item

i would get the correct lightend steel duplex or if you are on a budget the cast duplex from minispares wont break the bank

Yeah thought I'd just buy a new one, need to find out what this one fits so I can get rid of it or keep it!

Ebay it boss :) You could just get a lightened Minispares or minisport on either one will do they don't brake the bank

Yeah but don't know what it's for now! I was sure it was either RV8 or mini...

Whats the bore size of a mini one?

If there's a big enough difference In bore sizes I can't see using a key'd adaptor being an issue.

I'm not keen on using an adapter, I could probably make a new centre piece on the lathe (vernier is 2 piece), but don't have enough time to get other peoples jobs done at the mo let alone mine!
