have you changed you cam yet if memory serves right you had said something about a mk2 cam or something
I've got a Kent gs23h cam in there. 285 duration and 11.47" lift.  :smiley:

Weight saving is one of the best ways to gain speed, but I've got nothing I can remove that wouldn't sacrifice comfort or something else.
