I'm installing a Schrick cam in my '05 next weekend. While researching the Schrick I've heard that the spark plug towers need modification for clearance with this cam. Does anybody have more information or pics so I can be ready once the valve cover comes off?

Thanks!

 

Remove your OE cam and rockers then drop the schrick into the head. Rotate the cam and mark the tower where the cam lobe is touching. You can use a rachet socket extension (placed horizontally on the your mark) against the tower and slowly hammer it to make a dent to clear the lobe. It doesn't take much to clear the lobe. Repeat the steps on the remaining three towers.

 

Remember to test fit your spark plug socket down the tube to make sure you haven't gone too far on the beating.

Thanks guys! We'll see how it goes on Sunday.

 

Just did this last night. Its annoying trying to get the dent just right. But so far my car loves the cam. Tuning begins in a week or so.

Have fun
