wow ,brand new engine for 1250 dollars,sure got a good deal there.
The difference between the SE and the Jones is not so much about lift and duration it is more about base circle.OK, I guess I should have put S.E. II in the title, then maybe someone would have responded... LOL but speaking od S.E. II cams after literally searching this sight for hours I finally found the lift and duration specs on them and really they look so close in lift and duration specs to the apparently unobtainable Jones stg III cams that I don't think it would make a measurable difference anyway, and, wouldn't you know it? I just bought a set on ebay for $86 shipped. Since I was somewhat on the fence about going with a 1/4 stroke before due to expense I think I will definitely go with it now.
If you want "the best valve train parts I can find" then you should be looking to Jones or Fitzgerald cams.Yeah, I get the whole small base circle thing but I know that guys on here have run them for thousands of miles with no problems, I'm mostly going to be running it 1/4 Mike at a time and with the best valve train parts I can find.
I wouldn't write Jones cams as being impossible. Earlier this year Mike said he was doing a run of 25-30 sets, and end of June he said 15 sets were sold and there was a post on a thread end of July that said he hadn't started grinding yet. My guess is there is probably still some sets available.Well, apparently Jones came are impossible to get, I don't know about Fitzgerald cams but I'll check out what he has. I know there is an outfit or two grinding welded cams but after my experience with them I'll pass.
If you don't care about knock detection/logging sure.I'll look into the Daytona twin tech. Seems to be the overall favorite here?
