hi there,
i would have a couple questions regarding the aftermarket race cams for the guzzi round fin models and hope that i could tap into some of the info that is around here
For the new build up of my 1000cc tonti im considering buying the 86b camshaft of webcam since it seems to have with similar lift 0.45 vs the norris /megacycle X7 / X8 grind considerably shorter duration and to be honest a rather attractive price tag vs. the 416 for the megacycle cam (cant one send them anymore a good used cam for weld up??).
Point is that im not quite sure but with the long intake duration the norris shafts have they might be not so suitable for the road and i would love to avoid huges holes in the power delivery. I was assuming that the 86b should perform rather well with intake timing @0.040 (kinda extrapolated) 28op / 58 closes especially considering that i was planning to change the rocker ratio to achieve 0.5 valve lift among other things.
Anyways to cut it short Has anybody used that 86b grind by web cams yet?
Anything to tell? Or should i go with the norris grind?? I would just love some tractability left on the engine thus my leaning towards shorter duration and higher valve lifts.
I would be very interested to hear some opinions and if more info is requested about my plans on the engine i gladly will.
Thanks a lot
ciao and kind regards
