Ooh, very nice. This is something I'll be looking into probably later this year. At least now there's another choice besides the Paschal ones.

What's nice about these. Is like the lockouts, you can lock out the VCT... However, this will allow you to select the degree you want to lock them out at. The standard lockouts only allow you to fully advance or retard the cam timing. These allow you to choose.

What's the price on them? I wish I knew BBR had some a couple weeks ago when I dropped another $399 for the Paschal ones.

Would you recommend run these with your Billet Stage 1s, I have been eyeballing those for sometime now and Im pretty certain that when I do decide to order the cams that those will be my choice if I stay with the stock heads.
The power numbers you made with the Stage 1s were impressive and your were sporting similar bolt-ons as I currently have....

Our stage 1 cams were designed to work very well with the factory VCT. However, by dialing in your cam timing via tuning with these installed, you'll only pick up power.

A few questions

I recently purchased these and I know it is an old thread, but I did not get any instructions with them and there are no degree marks on them. I know how to degree a cam, but is it best to just eyeball the center of the slot to start with? Also should I use anything on the threads to keep them from backing out?

Your better off with trick flow adjustable crank sprockets as opposers to cam adjusters. There have been failures from what I understand... Lito in particular had a write up on it with pictures of the failure

They are a time bomb. Please don't put them in your engine. Adjust with the trick flow crank sprockets as stated.

+1 for the crank sprockets.

I don't think you will find any satisfied customers with the BBR adjustable cam sprockets.

Did you buy them from BBR or did you pick them up new-in-box privately?
If you bought them from BBR, return them and consider it a win-even if you have to pay a re-stocking fee. If you bought them privately, I am sorry to inform you that you are the bag holder.

Thanks man, I bought them from BBR but it has been a while so I may be holding the bag anyway. I will look into the crank gear as an alternative.
