Mine are Kent Cams Vernier Pulleys from peter loyd rallying, the cheapest i could find over here.

http://www.peterlloydrallying.co.uk/catalogue/engine/engine.html?http://www.peterlloydrallying.co.uk/catalogue/engine/main.html

Astra 16V per pair CA64 £148.95, might be different for an LET tho.

Ideally they need setting up but you can just put them straight on, also they are 200 grams lighter than standard pulleys, so the engine picks up a lot quicker.

Ever heard about the conversion, to set an XE inlet cam to your LET?
Some time ago, i drived with a friend, who had done that conversion.
And you can feel that it's works.
Also chipped by that, and a bigger intercooler.

No rollers again... will go after i fit and make some miles on EVO310....
but yes, it was a bit low... 14hp, dunno way, but it was!!!

Some m8 reconstructed all the internals with original parts and still managed less 10hp that mine... dont know what to think, but what matters is the diffrence between the before and after the EVO chip is fitted.

well its only 14HP so it probably just needs a few runs on the rollers in a good tuning place.
