    85 700 cams in 83 750 motor......Benefits???

    Hi, I'm currently building a 83 gs750e. I'm putting the weisco 816 kit in (getting my jug back from the machine shop today .) I've been looking at webcams but they want $1200.00 for their kit with the hardened rockerarms! I cant afford that. I read in another thread that the 85 700 cams are a bit hotter, Is this true? and if so will they be a direct bolt in or will I have to use my 750 cam sprockets?........ Or maybe someone has some more options, I'm all ears. thanks for your feedback, Helmut

    Get a set of slotted cam sprockets, it will help you dial in which ever cams you use.

      Where would you suggest I find some slotted cam sprockets? I just checked out A.P.E. and all they have is for the 1100 and 1150

        You can slot your sprockets.
        Research Degreeing cams
        You'll need a degree wheel and a dial indicator
