    All cams should be degreed in. Even stock cams.
    degreeing the cams in is the most important part of the engine assembly.

      Having said that, all cams should be agreed in to get your money's worth, Back in the day, there was a shop that discovered that stock GS1150 cam timing was all over the place. He would provide a "tune" for them which amounted to degreeing the stock cams in.
      Great perspective Big Jay. Thank you.
