On street bikes you run the same lift....when you get into serious race bikes you will see the different cams come into play. I really dont think you would benifit from it at all.

Im not sure if you have a matched set or not. I think they are but could be wrong. Why did you ask where the larger cam goes?

The 1982 GPz1100 (aka KZ1100-B2) cams (IN and EX) have identical profiles. The only difference is how they mount in the cam sprockets (= cam timing). Brianrae33, if your cams have different profiles, then you have a mixed set of cams or something other than 1982 GPz camshafts.
