Wish I had had the chance to chat to Viz, but never knew anyone who knew him when he was here in the 90s

I've spoken to Keith Calver on the phone a few times and a lot via email some years back when he wanted some decent 1100 pistons. This is when the minimania/spares message board was the latest web thing....

Anyway, part 7 :

*** apologies. about 6-7 minutes in a small bit repeats, editing error ***

This clip includes :
Extending Cam duration to the limit (& an interesting discussion about a 310SP cam someone is trying to use on the street!)
Valve train vibrations & dampeners

Cheers, Jacob

Brilliant! Thank you very much for your effort! There are a few things I understood better than from the book :) Thanks again!
