JWT Cams w/Cam gears. SR20DET settings?

[Lewis Shadoff]

JWT recommends setting the cam gears to reduce overlap.  This makes the
engine more detonation resistant, but moves the peak power to higher rpm as
compared to without the adjustable gears.

The way to do this is to advance the exhaust cam 2.5 degrees and retard the
intake cam 2.5 degrees, reducing overlap by 5 degrees.

In a previous thread it was pointed out to me that this is not a necessary
procedure, at low boost levels, but I went with the JWT recommendation
anyway.  I figured that it wouldn't hurt, and it might save the engine if I
ever got a bad batch of gas.
