I bought a cam from ebay. It is supposed to be a white brothers, but the only part number the guy says it has is 7eht, I called w.b. and they never heard the #. I am starting to think it is a stock cam and I am going to be highly p.o.ed with the guy. Iwas wondering if anyone had a stock cam out if they could look to see if it had these numbers or if anyone knew what cam it is. I am trying to find out so I'll know whether to get rocker arms and springs. Like I said, the # is 7eht. Thanks

sounds like the stock cam number,, most aftermarkets are stamped with the company name

I'll kill him, not really, but I would be mad. I looked up the part number and it didn't match, but it did sound like a honda number.

WTF would you buy an unknown part from an unknown source?????


Buy the part from a respectable shop and don't take the chance, unless you like dealing with Junk parts..... Just a suggestion.

Maybe cause I can get it for 1/3 the price and I don't have a ton of money to blow on parts. Yea, I should have researched a little more before I bought it, but to late now. I just asked for a little info from someone, not for you to smart off bout it.

Well I really hope you are right, atleast I hope that what's on the cam. Atleast I feel a little better about it now. I know stage one is for mx and top end, so how much bottom will I lose?

Stage 1 is for low end grunt and trails.
Stage 2 is for mid to high rpm's.

wilkin250r, you are piling now. I think he realizes his mistake and is trying to salvage any good that can come out of the situation.

Well actually they are both for top-end its just that the stage 2 actually loses bottom so people just say that stage 1 is for bottom, when actually stage 1 is if you dont want to lose any bottom. This is why Hotcams came out with the new grinds on the stage 2 and bumped the stage 2 to stage 3.

Thanks bleedred, like I said earlier, I am trying to do a little more to my bike without putting a crapload of money because I have a lot more bills than my 400, I am sure ppl can relate to that. I called hotcams and they said it could be theirs but I will have to call them back when I have it in front of them. And one way I look at it is everynow and then you are gonna get burnt, used parts or not. I might as well take it and go and hope for the best.
