The Andrews 48H is another one with 28 overlap but the Wood cams might work better with the later intake valve closing and extra lift.

I'm in the same boat. Too much heat with the 254E.

Overlap certainly has the potential to help eliminate heat but I've noticed in my shop that fuel maps running in closed loop tend to be a big part of the problem in regards to heat. I tune everything open loop, still knock down 44 mpg give or take, see oil temps drop considerably and snappier throttle response to boot.

No headwork? Gov with a low lift cam like an se 204 or a Crane 1-6000. You give up a few ft-lbs,but a lot less valvetrain wear over the long haul.....

SE204 is absolutely one of the BEST all around bolt-in cams...no doubt

We have tuned over 3000 bikes, however we only post a few charts on our website for popular combinations we work with. We will be launching an all new Fuel Moto "Mega" website late fall and we will be posting many more charts on the site along with many other enhanced features. If anyone would like specific info on a given combination they are welcome to contact us.

Ordered my TW-222 this morning. Will let you all know how the cam feels in a week or two. I'm not going to set my expectations too high, but I'm hoping to notice the difference when riding 2 up.
