On a side note, I just got an NOS SE-1. Am I missing something? This cam looks tiny?

Should I not bother with this cam and go for the EV27?
SE-1 has 8 degrees more duration on the intake and 10 more on the exhaust than a EV-27. Lift is about the same. Depends on bike and goals.

+1 PanHeadRich, replace the bearing with the torrington if for no other reason peace of mind.
berdo what type of bike are you riding the SE-1 is for a very light bike, I was looking into an SE-3 for my 85 FLHT but have been steering more towards the Andrews seems there are a lot of people that really like this cam mod, have not heard anything bad about the SE cams but don't seem as popular. Spanner, Graham and others with more experience may be able to shed some more light on this one.

I've got an FXR, so it's as light as it's gonna be. Thanks for the heads up.
