[QUOTE="joedrum, post: 138922, member: 98"] seems were getting off topic a bit ...the dft is a great mod for any wing stock or modded to other cam besides stock for the motor ... ive used them all in the same motor except for 1200 cam ...witch is a milder cam....i had already experienced the 79 mild cam and did not see the point of 1200 cam try it seems the early 371 cams from 75-77 oldwings has all the duration and lift that the oldwing motor can handle and if put 1200... piston notching for clearance is required ....but it also seems on the front side where cam starts its quite tame and idles well .... the 5 degrees overlap is not very aggressive ...so to me its like the perfect cam ...out of the cams i used ..my choice was thee early 1000 cams ... all tested by the seat of the pants .. in the conditions of use these were the best for me ...all this testing was done on a 1100 motor witch did not need piston mod and the heads never have been off this bike since i had it ...it was a wrecked bike i bought and fixed up as for the dft carb i cant wait to try one on the angry dresser 1100 ..i am sure it will be faster than it was with stock carbs ... if people really knew me they would know i would never back something that didnt show me something i wanted power ...hooch with the shovelking induction system and mods is the best performing bike ive ever had :BigGrin: it dose everything well :ahem: :thanks: [/QUOTE]
