cam advice

thanks for all the insight.It sounds like the most affordable upgrade would be the gpz1100 (83-85) cams,slot my stock sprockets and check everything for fit.That would mean electronic tach as well correct..I just torqued down the head last night, I may have to wait on the cam selection until money permits but at least I know what to look out for now. cheers.

They'll work but doing the sprockets up is not a 5 minute job.

It will be easier to go with KZ cams than the GPz cams. Just so you know it's not a 5 minute swap.

Keep an eye open and you'll probably find some Web 118's or Andrews 2x that would be easier to fit.

Didn't Jay say that he had a set of sprockets for that conversion? Or did I misunderstand? I might even have a set of those cams.

ya I have been trying to keep an eye open for those cams for a while now but no success.If I don't find something this summer I will probably fork out the cash for new this fall,I have already blew all my money on the top end and still don't have rear brakes for my gsxr rear,oh well the front works though:silly: .

I took a look at the sprockets from APE they are ONLY for the MKII crank to GPz cam adaptation. so these sprockets will not work with the 1978 and earlier bikes.
