What Stage Is This Hotcam

[dxcody]

I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN RAN OVER, PISSED ON, SCOUPED UP, BURIED OUT IN A FIELD, DUG UP BY A DOG, THEN THREW BACK OUT INTO THE ROAD TO BE RAN OVER BY A SEMI, BUT I COULDNT FIND ANYTHING ON THIS SITE ABOUT IT....

PART NUMBER WW-HC GB NO:43

I GUESS THATS THE PART NUMBER

WHAT STAGE IS IT?? I LOOKED IN THE STICKYS AND COULDNT FIND ANYTHING,
THEN I TYPED HOTCAM IN THE SEARCH BOX AT THE BOTTOM AND NOTHING POPPED UP ABOUT PART NUMBERS, BUT I REMEMBER SEEING AT LEAST 3 POSTS ABOUT THIS

SORRY FOR MAKING YOU SAY THIS AGAIN

I AM JUST REALLLLY HOPING ITS A STAGE 2

[hocman123]

i dont know for sure but that doesn't sound like a hotcam # at all and most hot cams have there name stamped on it in many spots

[dxcody]

THAT THE ONLY NUMBER I CAN SEE ON THERE
I DIDNT REALLY THINK IT SOUNDED LIKE ONE EITHER BUT HECK I DONT KNOW

I DO KNOW ITS A HOTCAM 100% 4SURE THOUGH

[dxcody]

LIKE YOU SAID "hotcam" IS STAMPED ON THE FRONT BY THE SPROCKET, AND ON THE OTHER END

[Baileygunns]

That's a hotcam number... Call them 515-402-8005 and ask them.

[Duf6]

I belive thats the new stage 2. I can't remember for sure but I think thats the number that was on mine.

[CJM]

Pretty sure its an old stage 2.

[Baileygunns]

I just got home and checked the stage 2 cam on the bench... WW-HCFB NO:43 is stamped on it. I called them a few weeks ago, gave them the number and they told me it was a stage 2 for any year 400ex.

THANKS EVERYBODY

ITS A STAGE 2 THANK GOODNESS

[dxcody]

OH AND ALSO,,,

MY PISTON IS IN FAIR CONDITION EXCEPT FOR LITTLE DENTS ALL OVER IT, NOT REAL BAD BUT WHEN I BOUGHT THIS QUAD IT HAD A BLOWN HEAD GASKET (AND BOY IT WAS LIKE GONE.)

COULD THE LITTLE INDENTIONS IN THE TOP OF MY PISTON BE FROM PIECES OF THE HEADGASKET?

THE DUMB*** THAT OWNED IT BEFORE ME RODE IT WITH THE HEADGASKET LIKE THAT, AND HE KNEW IT WAS BLOWN.

(just to show you how big of a jackass he was ill tell you what he told me.. he said that the only diff. between a 400ex and a 450r is the plastic...??? i was like really dude..) LOL!!

[CJM]

Possible.

Id check the bore for size and buy a new piston imho, one that looks like a rat chewed it isnt good.

[dxcody]

supposed to be a 426 but after talking to the guy, its hard telling what it is.

Ill prolly go 426 11:1

seems to be a preferred choice especially with my stage 2 hotcam

[CJM]

I would not order anything till you can verify what ya got in there first if I were you.

Cause if its a 426 and its already out of spec you can bore anymore. Its either 440 or go back to stock and bore the size you want or keep it stock.

[dxcody]

dumb question, how exactly do i go about checking to see what it is?

Not much of a 440 fan.. if anything i will buy a new sleave and bore to 416 like my old one... i loved it

[CJM]

Need an inside micrometer and a caliper to measure it (well makes it easier).

A machine shop can do it.

[dxcody]

alrighty, appriciate it CJM and all others!!
