Post subject:  more newby cam help!!

OK, first, this is a mild work up.....porting, dual exhaust, elec fan.
THe cam I have is the late stock Volare cam.

After reading numerous posts, still not clear on some items:

1) Some cams come advanced.....would the stock cam from Mehling Clevite be one of those?

1) with a mild build up like mine, and mild cam, is degreeing it really necessary?

2) From what I gather usually the cam gets advance. Could I advance by a tooth (or two) and probably do more good than harm?


2) Cam sprocket is slotted, not a dowel pin hole. Any suggestions as to
how to advance/ retard?

3) Do we generally advance a little extra to account for chain stretch as well?

4)When you guys say advance the cam, is it actually rotated clockwise?
I guess I never really heard for sure.
