Perhaps the Redshift was an easier cam to tune for your tuner and he had difficulties getting the Woods tuned right.

Anyway, congrats on getting it sorted out.

The Woods cams need the right exhaust combo, it's been shown time and again. The other cams not so much.

Peace.

I have no plans on paying for another dyno session for a 6th gear comparison if that’s what your hoping for.

I am running one of the exhaust systems Fuel Moto sells with this kit. The torque would most like like come on a little sooner with a 2:1 exhaust. The fuel Moto xxx exhaust has a larger stepped primary pipe than most systems out there to help with the top end hp.

Fuel Moto know what pipes work with a Woods cam, they'll sell you one.

FYI if users are looking at an alternative cam to the WM8-408 and would like to replace a bit of right side horsepower with left side torque in our 124/128 kits we also offer the WM8-77X cam as an option.

Your cnc head work seems to be worth a lot. What is the spec on the heads, are they big valve? what's the cost of an exchange pair? Awesome power by the way.
