why would I want to do that mate?

I got my standard replacement camshaft for £55, the crank was £250 and it's new not reground. (from Volkspares IIRC) The crank, cam and main bearings are surprisingly cheap, add to that a gasket set, waterpump, oil pump, oil cooler, piston rings etc that does soon build up.

The barrels and pistons are going to eat a hole (big) im me renovation fund Ian, the crank feels smooth and unafected by any debris.
If I cancel the wessie tour then hey... bring it on!

[T'Onion]

sorry i do not know how to drag the question to my replay. but why a different cam? i have put different/performance cams into motorcycle engines before.They rev out better and produce more power. The fuel consumpion did not seem to alter, although i probably was not looking at that as closely then. I remember them being more flexible, ie better power everywhere, is it not the same with these engines?
