I''m doing my first build on a stock 400ex. Here's what I'm looking at right now. I picked up a used sparks x-6 exhaust and am going with a 416 11:1 piston and want to remain on 91 octane. Will either hot cam work fine with this comp. and fuel? My concern is that the stg. 1 will allow the cylinder pressure to build too high and cause detonation.
Is the stg. 1 meant ONLY for stock applications?
I know most people are going with HC stg 2 for bored 400ex's, but I like a lot of low end, so that's why I'm looking at the stg.1
I know the x-6 is more top end focused but it was readily available. But the stg.1 cam and x-6 would be a dumb combanation right? would they be working against each other?
Same question for a stg.2 and a yoshi rs-3 exhaust?work against or compliment the other? I don't know.
I thought I might do my break ins with the x-6 and then if I don't like the low end enough I might sell the x-6 and get a Yoshi rs-3
Anyone know for sure about the cam suitability?
