I just got a new killer b camshaft, but no information came with it. Does anyone know what degree it installs at?

Thanks

Jason
 
and its really best to check on things.. check with bill or morgan like chad said..
 
Killer b's are real tight cams, call bill or you will kiss piston. I have pictures to prove it...

like they are saying it pushes the limits so its best to do your own checking, facts are if your motor was ever decked head/block your over the limit... so by checking or running either more valve clearence or a thicker head gasket you can go around a problem if it exist.. lick i said its best to check.... not all motors even from the factory are the same and bills cam pushes that limit..
on the other end of this my motor with that cam made over 500 hp from 2k to over 3600 and only peaked at 522 on that session so they work... just know what your getting into.
 
Thanks for the help guys. Got in touch with bill and he set me on the right track.
In case this information might help someone else this is what he said...

"you shouldn't have to degree it, just line it up. Now, every time you install a cam the person should take a rotation check. examples: new piston were place into a milled down block, the head was re-machined etc. A person can check this by starting at TDC,turn the motor clockwise, as soon as you see #1 intake valve start to drop "stop" loosen the rockers jam nut and screw the adj screw down (each turn is around .020 ?)
you should get a couple of turns,this means you have clearance... If the screw immediately stops, we need to degree... this is the most simplest way to check"

Yep, that's how you check piston to valve clearance. Thats how I checked mine. Works great.
