These are the ones Im looking at buying. They would be for a 1500 hi comp engine. Thanx Mike
 
WebCam will make you any grind you want. Why so big on the exhaust cam are you spraying it also?
I like the 420/390 for a big NA motor
 
I have a NICE set of that exact cam if you are looking for a deal. I am also a dealer for Web & am at their place a couple of times a month.

Thank You for the offer Ray but I only Buy new camshafts. My pos twas is it better hard welded?? or what they call new billet cams?
 
Either way, I can get you new billets or hard welds. The set of .416s I have I can send you pics of. I am honest about the stuff I sell & I wouldn't hesitate to run them in my own engine, & I am PICKY!! LOL!!!
Ray.
 
Speaking of which, anyone have a modified GSX-R intake cam set up for the 1150 which they might want to part with?
 
I can do the mod for you but I am out of the good 88/89 GSXR750 cams. I have LOTS of GSXR1100 cams.
Ray.
 
Gee I must be a bad speller. I am aware of that. I wondered if when buying new camshafts hard-welded ones were better thn billet as advertised or there is zero difference? Im curios. If i end up spending a load of Canadian money on cams i wanted to get the best quality I could. Especially with the rocker and Camshaft issues I have suffered previously. Thanx Mike
 
I always run Modified rockers ray. I really liked the cam motion cams they used to carry. Ive never had web cams but had heard some people have had issues with the heat Treat in them. Hoping they have finally gotten it all figured out. Thanx Mike
 
No issues in the last 15 years Mike. I had some bad sets from them in the early 90s when I had my shop in Hawaii but none since then. I got Web to copy & digitize all the Cam Motion cams I had so I can still get most grinds they had.

I run a set of Webs Grind #168 .348 lift Int. and Exh. .282 duration .257 duration at @.050 Mild cams in a hobby bike I have been building. The wider duration was mainly for the loping sound they produced with the lack of low end power I know now. But mid range and top end pulls hard. It says to use hard welded rockers with them which I do not have. I have APE H.D. springs not the PRO ones in a Star racing street ported head. I don't have a top end oiler at this time Just a GS1150 oil cooler and high volume oil pump gears. So far when adjusting the valves I have not seen any noticeable wear on the cams or rockers. Is my insert into this post along with a couple questions. I have been thinking about installing a 7" slick and a wheelie bar and trying it at the track a few time to just see what it will do. Would any of you recommend the hard welded rockers and a top end oiler since I will be running the motor a lot harder.
