Intake Cam Mod question ???

[BusaWhipped]

I'm considering doing the intake cam on the exhaust mod. Will the stock ECU compensate for this mod, or do I need a dyno tune?

It will have to be tuned as the ECU will not compensate for changes. As many miles as you put on a bike, I'd recommend using a cam built on a exhaust blank to get the right cam to bucket alignment.

60,000 miles in 4 years is alot?

Thanks Prof. I need to get the valves adjusted and was thinking of swapping cams while its appart. I guess I'll just stick with doing the needed maintenance for now.

So you are recommending against the intake cam in the exhaust side?? This is the first I have heard could you please explain.

Dual intake cams, with adjustable sprockets yield about 6 to 7 horsepower!

I'd have to find some pictures. The lobes on the cams are not spaced the same. This moves the lifter to bucket contact. This could cause long term problems. It would be better to buy a cam ground on an exhaust blanks.
