Default Cam Help

So I'm moving up to a FM 110 Drop in kit. the TW999-6 cams on the website say's comes on extremely early and stays on late. But on the woods website it says 3000rpm and up. I would like to know if someone is running these or can speak of expierance with the cams?


thanks

I don't have experience with those cams, but like you said on " Woods " website it does say 3000-up so I would go with that

If you bring the squeeze up to 10.5-10.8. yes they will perform very nicely...

Like most cams, they work well set up correctly.

The TW-999-6a does make nice broad power, here are a couple dyno charts from recent builds with Fuel Moto 110 drop on kits utilizing the TW-999-6a cams. Note both of these builds were above 110 Tq from 2500-5500 rpm
