Which would be better for a 998 with 45dcoe.

The KENT 266 or 276 megadyne (i think 286 would be a bit much!)
Or even a 731?

Has anyone got something to say about any of these cams.
Still trying to pick the "right" one for my motor.

I have a 286-ish grind in my 1275, and with a Vizard ported head it was really smooth - would be the same story for a 998, the head and cam really are a matched set for any motor, if you do one, do the other

with all the talk of RE-13's I thought you'd have caught that bug - :?:

Nope i'm not convinced with this RE-13.
Its kinda like the Honda brakes.
Just doesnt appeal. :lol:

I've had a Camtech VP3 which was between the 266/276, and a 731. Trust me, the RE-13 would kill both the 266 and 731. The 276... probably kill it too.. :lol:

isn't the fact that everyone in sydney raves about them, and people like minicranks in NZ are getting them enough to give one a shot?

I think I'll give one a go when I rebuild my S motor next year

do you have a copy of Vizard (the yellow one)? decide what you're gonna do with your head, and it'll help you work out a cam. Like I said, if you're gonna leave the head stock, don't go too far with the cam cos it won't be able to breathe

If you express post a `stock' cam to Graham Russell he'll regrind it and send back.
I think it costs U around $160 incl return post. Ring him & ask.
I'll PM U details.

It's similar idle to 731, but that's where similarity ends. 8)

I am rebuilding an engine at the moment as well. What advantage does the RE13 grind give you over a standard cam? do you have to buy special followers etc?

Help me out - I was just going to put the standard cam back in!
