Yup, adjustable, you can get them straight from the dealer, I didn't know RSM was selling them. My guess is they are GM ones anyway but I'm not sure. <br>

i've been looking into this head...by far the best complete deal i've found. keep us informed on it. <br>
Cost of mods: $2500
Number of headaches during install: Too many to count
Look on your face when you realized you got beat by a Cavalier: PRICELESS
Sorry I forgot about this thread. I have been getting codes ever since I had it installed, we played with the timing gears a bit and that got rid of the codes. But then I went to the track this past weekend and now I'm getting more codes again.
The car feels good but track times haven't improved significantly other than a CAI I installed, plus the car sounds like @!#$ over 5000rpms now. I dunno what to do, basically I'm may look to cams from somewhere else. Maybe just wait for the Ecotec SC from GM, that's maybe what I should have done in the first place.
I'm gonna talk to JBP first to see what they have to say. <br>

What octane gas you using?
What sort of profile did you use for the cams? Have you tried setting the cam gears to 0*?
I think its JBP's stage 1 grind, I can't remember what it is off the top of my head, I'm pretty sure its on their site. We haven't tried 0* yet but that will like be the next setting, since I'm gonna get the GM SC (whenever it comes out). <br>

Wow... sorry to hear that...
I have a milder grind from Comp Cams and with a little P&P work, I have roughly 150+ WHP... I have other mods too, obviously, but I have had no codes...
