you can find the answer to this and much more if you would use the SEARCH found at the top of the screen, just below the Exriders.com ;) :D

1 builds most power on bottom end and 2 works on the mid and top.

Hot cams had some problems in the past but they fixed it, and replaced the problem cams free. They are the best cam for the $$. Stage 2 works well in the sand. My .02

stage one for woods, stage 2 if you like to rev.

The broach used to be pressed on the cam. The splines were loose and there was play. They now have tyhe broah already on the cam when yoiu buy it. There is no longer any issues.

all the cam companys are top notch compamny's some are a little more specialized and this shows in the cost.

Unless you have a bunch of money laying around or just want to runa name brand yoiu cant go wrong. Just remember "drop in " cams are truly drop in. Unlike thej hard welded cams which required HARDENED Vale trains.

Ths being said, my buddy has a HARDENED web cam in his quad for over 6oo hours on the stock non hardened rockers.

There is no wear at all.

So dont ask me.

the 450/451 Web cam is a drop in according to CT Racing and Robbs Racing. Web says to get hardened rockers but I have done fine with stock ones.
