1.3 Kent 300deg Cam - Mechanical Head

Featured Replies

Kent 300 Degree high lift camshaft.

Still in box and bag.

BRAND NEW

Basically impossible to get hold of these days.

Will ONLY fit 1.3 mechanical heads in pre 90's mk2's, mk1's and polos.

Will bring more power all the way up to 6.5/7k and perfect to use with twin 40's or bike carbs.

£200 ono.

If your engine doesn't look like this :

It will NOT fit.

impossible 2 get hold of indeed. just selling my mk2 atm, this would have been perfect, but i no longer need mechanical cam. anyone with a mk1/2 polo or mk1 golf 1.3 should snap this right up. free bump

Do you have the valve lift figures inlet/exhaust in mm?

Does it need piston pocketing.

From the spec sheet :

P03 - Rally spec cam (Highest 1300) -

Power band 2500-6500

40/80 80/40 timing figures

10.40mm valve lift

300deg duration

Valve clearance inlet : 0.35mm exhaust : 0.045mm

Full lift @ 110degrees

Cam follower : Not required

Valve spring : Not required (But I know you can use 8v double springs if you wanted to)

From what I've gathered from Kent, no alterations are "needed" obviously uprated springs & a vernier would help maximise the effects.

Hope that helps.

Have you still got this dude?

And just to confirm that it will go on a 1.3 gt?

Got cash and can collect.

Cheers,

Martyn

Provisionally Sold awaiting payment.

If sale falls through : as said above - it will only fit your 1.3 engine if it looks like the one above. Mechanical Lifters ONLY.
