I'd be interested to know the price of a cam grind. The scudo lacks a bit of power running 31s

x2 I'm on 30's and would also be nice to have some low down tourqe.

In saying that Suzukis are made to rev......., possibly it would not achieve much without supporting exhaust system and headers.

all cam specs and pricing is listed on their web site

$165 is pretty good I recon bang for buck wise.

Yup Easy pessy. I think the cam may even have to come out first anyway as it is positioned over the head bolts ? Either way head removal is not required.

Hi drewz1

After doing a bit of research it seems the head does have to come off for the 8valve. Sorry to put you wrong , my experience is only with 16 valve motors and I mistakenly thought they both would be the same. :oops:

16v = 16 valves and 16 cam lobes
8v = 8 valves and 8 cam lobes
