cam timing and rpm

Subject: cam timing and rpm
by dennisg on 2014/1/17 7:27:38

Years ago I added a hotter cam to my 1200 but was not impressed as the cam came with a card saying the valves would float at 6200 so I stayed below that and saw more loss than gain. Two days ago, having read here that the 1200 would spin to 8000 so I tried it. I was too busy to look at its tach but it was a different experience. At that speed, that engine was making less power so when I shifted into 2nd, it snapped forward surprisingly.
Pushed to that rpm, it seemed a different engine. Its 2000 rpm idle was now understandable.
