Performance cams for XT600???
 
Where can I get one of these in the UK?
I can't find a supplier for them anywhere - I know Slipstream use them but where do they get them from?

Hi tom... I don't know any in the UK... I think there is a stage-2 cam around ebay which ebay I don't remember... the cheapest one I've seen is 215€...

will you be uprating the valves and springs with the new cam? I would have thought that high-lift cams would inevitably shorten the service interval on the valves unless everything is uprated, so might be a pitfall of tuning the engine up for overlanding (rather than down)

Not too cheap no. I'd go for a stage2 but I got other things first on my to do list :cool4:

Don't forget to tell how much power you got from it :cool4:

Can Raptor cams be used for XT600 engines?
They are pretty similar engines.

I have no clue about that... I've seen a thread about that somewhere here in the hubb... can't find it tho...

This suggests they are different. the lobes seem narrower on the Raptor cam, going by the photos.

The Raptor cam shown is for the 5 valve head - are the earlier ones 4 valve???
