hi all, i just bought a 87mm cyl kit and want to change the cam also, but iīm not really sure which one to buy... i was thinkin on a engle but not sure if the 100 or 110??? What difference do they make from the original? do i have to change the rocker arm?

Need a few more details before anyone can make a camshaft recomendation. Application, intended use, induction and exhaust systems, desired compression ratio and so on.

with a displacement increase of just ~50cc's you most likely won't even notice a difference in power, unless you also do carbs, exhaust, etc. so I wouldn't worry about a cam until after all those things, and even then - a 1641 isn't a real hot motor

Were you planning on spliting the case?

If not then leave the cam and get a set of ratio rockers.

i now it isnīt a hot motor... i want to know if it would make a difference in something a new cam or the ratio rockers...
