like they said...you do not have to degree your cam... but for Optimum performance it's a must...
People degree there cams in because of core shift....
What this means as a block "seasons" it moves and because of machining tolerance this can become more complicated...
If you take to identicle blocks machine them the same and one has more core shift than the other well cam timing can be affected...
I have seen block vary as much as 4 degrees...I have heard of more....
you'll notice more of a difference "light to light" than you would in the 1/4 but it is always nice to know where your at if you should run into trouble....
