good cam, great in lighter bikes, comes on around 2,500-2,800 depending on carb and exhaust combo.

Just be sure to replace the inner cam bearing with a Torrington. To many failures with the stock INA bearing. Especially when you go to a performance cam.

Yeah, I'm definately getting Torrington bearings,But unsure of what brand pushrods to get and also should i get a stage 1 jet kit or should i let the indie shop worry about setting the carb after they do the cam swap?
