Timing Mark Calculator

Or

Degree Cam Calculator

This calculator is used to determine the measurement of an advanced degree setting on a harmonic

balancer.  If you determine TDC (Top Dead Center) and check the balancer, then you may use this calculator

to give you the information to scribe the exact degree setting you would like to run.

You could also input the ICL of your cam and use the resulting mark to check the cam degree.

Example: if cam is installed at 110 degree ICL use the diameter of your balancer and 110 to see where the mark will be to the left of the TDC mark.

At this mark the highest lift of the intake cam lobe should be at 110 degrees BTDC.


Once you have determined Top Dead Center with a dial indicator or other means and installed the harmonic with a timing tab, this calculator will determine your exact mark at whatever degree you indicate in the calculator.

Enjoy.

Diameter of your harmonic balancer:  

(example:  answer will be in whatever unit of measurement used)

What degree setting to figure for your mark?:

(example:  36 for 36 degrees)

Please Input The Diameter of the balancer
