robo22sri 10 Posted April 20, 2012 I contacted Bill Schimmel last week and he said he is prepared to offer discount on the cams again. Although judging by the overwhelming response. Not sure why I bother tbh. Thanks Kev :) Did he say anything about amounts needed? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 0 Posted April 20, 2012 I would be interested in the schimmel 263 cams 110% if a group buy was going to be run. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 20, 2012 OK, when we hit 10 interested, I'll ask him what discounts he's thinking of for 10, 20, 30, and so on, sets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 0 Posted April 20, 2012 http://www.vr6oc.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?476833.last will see what interest there is :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 20, 2012 Schimmel's site is down at the moment, so I can't put together some baseline numbers.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joebloggsVR69 0 Posted April 20, 2012 I might be up for some cams too :) Are we talking roughly 20bhp increase and 20lbft torque? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 20, 2012 I might be up for some cams too :) Are we talking roughly 20bhp increase and 20lbft torque? Not necessarily. The final gains are part and parcel of the remapping and any other mods the engine may have, such as a BMC, decat, etc etc and the general health of the motor i.e. no f'cked valve guides or oval bores :D I think it was Vornwend and VAG-HAG who both got serious gains. Well over 20hp. I can however say for certain that anyone who's taken their 263s to Stealth for remapping has come away very happy :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can however say for certain that anyone who's taken their 263s to Stealth for remapping has come away very happy :D As Kev says Stealth did a great job with mine - I got 220.8hp (from 192.4) and 199.9lbs (from 182.4). See charts on page 5 of my thread :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted April 20, 2012 Mine was just over 200bhp with standard map, no before figures though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stonejag 10 Posted April 21, 2012 I'd be interested if a GB goes ahead. Should probably learn more about how the head all goes together so a top end rebuild would be a good challenge :) Stone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikeVR6 0 Posted April 30, 2012 Count me in too. Thank goodness I used the search and found this thread. I was about to order a set from Bill this week. What's the score with Customs Duty on these? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
captainredeye 0 Posted April 30, 2012 Ok i may be interested depending on final price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daleyboy 0 Posted April 30, 2012 Maybe it'll be worth getting a list of names together, and sorting the definates from the maybe's. Im a definate by the way...... :wave: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swiftkid 1 Posted April 30, 2012 I'll put my name down as interested, just need to tot up prices first before I'm a definite Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted May 1, 2012 If someone can put together a list of definites (or start and actual GB thread), I will discuss pricing with Bill Schimmel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
