Looking for cheap power?

Yeah something sounds fishy with that set up. Those cams need more compression then that to work well. By the way; did you pay for that cheap dyno tune too? No one will put your bike on the dyno for a simple test or quick tune for less than a buck 25, unless your buddy did if for you; and that engine recipe sounds like a bunch browny mix; if you know what I mean.

There is always going to be the non-believers. By the way the tune was $200 bucks, but that would probably sound fishy because it didn't take half a day and cost $600 or some other reason you can come up with. I will not dispute the cams would work better with more compression, but this set-up does produce 91HP and 93TQ. No 110 heads here for sell unless they are going on a bike. If you want to validate this come to Kansas, I'm sure the owner will allow you a test ride.

Wilson,
Lets' say that you are telling the truth; what did you do to raise the compression enough to make that cam work? If you didn't, then your must be running extremely rich in order to get that kind of power out of an 88. The other thing that sounds risky about this set up is the fact that you are not using adjustable push-rods. Do the SE251's have the same base circle diameter as the stock cam? I'm not that smart when it comes to the 110 heads either. Help me understand this cheap power. Can you send us a dyno sheet and not one that you invented on your cmputer?

That's interesting...I'm surprised that they would have issues like that considering how much they get for their heads. Are the 110 heads usually around 1100 bones regular priced?
