Bottom end cam

[Chanman420q]

What is a good cam for bottom to mid? without needing the hardended rockers or valves bah crap stuff.

That depends on what else you are doing to the motor. If you are not going to add a high comp piston, Than the hot cam stage one is a good choice it is designed to run with the stock compression.:)

im gunna run the highest compression i can without using race gas... which i think is 10.5

If ur gunna do that, try a hotcams stage 2. I heard they give good power all the way through the rpm range, but especially mid to top end. The piston should take care of the bottom end. I would throw on an xr head gasket instead of a standard. This will up ur compression from 10.5:1 to like 10.7:1 because it is a thinner gasket, it is also metal and i trust them more than the stock one. Just another thought for ya.;)

i wanna ru as high as ican without having to run race gas.

Yea, should be able to run premium pump up until 11:1. After that i would start to mix race and premium. I am gunna run pump with 11:1 in 2 weeks when i do my 416. I will be runnin the XR head gasket with a JE 10.8:1 piston. I may add a little octane boost but nothin major.:macho

Just get a JE or Ross piston, Stay away from Wiseco, their climed compression ratio is not what it says, if they say its 11:1, its really only like 10.4:1.;)

XR400 cam is good for bottom end and midrange..
