    Can't count ?
    360 divided by the no of teeth.

    Twice that for crankshaft degrees

    If i want a smart arse answer i would go to the pub.

    Rather than pull rockercover of and counting teeth i thought someone might know the answer..

    drop GTA22 (Simon) a PM as i think he has an 18R in his workshop with the lid loosely siting on it.

    Has been too long since i looked at the business end of my 18R - but i'd say that it has several pin positions in the cam and pulley - allowing you to vary the position it much like the 5ME cam.
