Re: how to use n1 cams on 20v
Are you running a complete 20v motor or do u have a sr20ve non 20v. If my memory serves me the 20v uses a different cam/crank gear setup than the other ve. So maybe cam timing would be off

You don't need to change anything.

IF you want to run adjustable cam gears then you will need to change the chain and the bottom crank gear. The 20v Pump is better IMO as they front cover is built better (has more veins on it which helps it hold together with the revs). The Tensioner is the same.

You will have to get the crank gear and collar for a 16/20ve, the 20V gear is made on to the collar.
The 20V/VET tensioner has finer teeth so that means smaller increments of adjustment.

The tensioners are the same. I have both VET engines and VE engines and they are identical.

Infact, it was only the older DE ones that DIDN'T have the finer teeth. If you were to buy new, de,det,ve or vet they are all identical

I have ordered a new VE tensioner and compared it to the one off a VET, and the VET has finer teeth.

I'd post comparison pics, but they have been installed already.
