Dennis Kirk has them, but I don't know how there price compares.

[JhallettEX]

Dennis kirk dont have them tell the end of the month and CD is cheaper, and alot better customer service by far.

[Ketch]

Jhallettex do you think there is any stag 1 available from C/D Raceing.:cool:

Hey Hallett You gettin comission or just another one of Colby's lackies :D
JK

Anyhow what are you talking about in at C&D I have my Hot cam in the motor already.

For the performance stuff it seems to work pretty good just started to break it in today. Was a little concerned that the specs were not what I expected. The grind was a little smaller than advertised but still seems to work good from the lower RPM and great midrange.

And there is no drilling to accept the de-compression feature of the stocker.

Visual inspection was that its a quality product and it didnt look like the lobes were as hardend as the stocker. Could this be why they dont require the hard face rockers?

Dennis kirk dont have them tell the end of the month and CD is cheaper, and alot better customer service by far.

The requested price is the same but see what you can do there:cool:

So far service has been good.

I am not sure about the stage 1, just give them a call, if they dont have it they will get it for ya. 440, where did you get yours at allready? Are you sure that it is the stage 2? I can't wait to get mine, should be here tomorrow, Dusty sent it out to me today. i will inform you all when I get it in.

I got it from C&D :)

Its the stage 1. I wanted the extra lift (but its the same as the stage2:rolleyes: ) and less duration to keep the power band a little lower and not loose too much bottom end.

I think they were out of stage1 but they may have been delivered with the stage 2 as C&D had more stage1 on order.

[JhallettEX]

The stage 2 is for raceing applications and the 1 is just for play ridin I think.

Here you all go......hope you like, I am hoping to put it on tonight and I will let you all know......also, C&D almost sold out today so if you are thinkin about gettin this cam you better hurry and decide.

Get it in & test it out. I ordered one today, and want to know how it compares to the xr cam

Jhallett I purchased one of stage 2 from C/D racing this morning they had five left But i also have a stage 1 coming from Dennis Kirk too now. dennis kirk has them in stock to. So that makes me have one of each now.:D

[Hoodeye3]

Finally,
Definately post your opinions Jhallett & thanks for the heads up!

by specs alone there is no comparison. Either the stage 1 or 2 has that much more lift and duration.

But who knows as the one I have was not the same specs.

JhallettEX

Can you post the specs on your cam card?

[JhallettEX]

Intake: Exhaust:

Lift: 8.85 mm 8.60mm

Lobe Center: 106 107

Duration @ 1mm: 254 254

hmmmmm:confused:

Those numbers are the same as listed in the specs.

the stage1 was listed at

Stage 1-
9mm .354, 9mm .354
246 :246

but the one I received was not too the same spec. I dont have the cam card here but I think it was 8.85 lift and only 2.40 dur.

I will check it out and post it later.

[Punk13rym]

how exactally do you go about installing a cam?

OK here it is:

Expected this
Stage 1-
IN EX
lift 9mm .354, 9mm .354
dur .246 .246

What I received
lift 8.85m .349 8.6m .339
dur .232 .229

compare to
XR's at .
326 .321
240 244.

Well this stage1 cam spec (the one received not expected) would be a good drop in for a stocker or maybe with a pipe, intake and jet kit but its just not enough cam for the set up I have.

I had decided to try the stage1 mostly for the higher lift and was willing to give up some duration (I wanted to keep most of the bottom end and get a big punch in the mid and a little more top) but this was just too much of a drop in the numbers.

I have not had time to call C&D yet but as you can tell I am not happy :grr

Its only a small amount of $$$ but I am just getting tired of having to tear into the motor over and over.

Well had a chance to put some more time on it today and its an OK cam. It did add a good amount of "punch" but as I thought it just isnt enough for the 440 or at least I was wanting more.

I am going to either get the stage2 or the 479 web and try it out in mine and will try out the stage1 in a mostly stock 400 (basic mods like said above) later and let you guys know how it works in that quad.
