[QUOTE="joedrum, post: 210823, member: 98"] After looking at the pics in this thread there simply doesn’t look to be any really huge difference in cam design...especially the pic with the pic of the keyways up on both cams sitting Side by side ...I did read that there is 3mm more lift in the 1000 cams ..but it’s not like thelobes are in a different spot or something ...seems good there ....in fact dan had 1200 cams in a 1100 motor and heads for quite some time and ran it that way ...the only plus in that set up is the 1100 heads have adjustable rockers so he could make differences that way ...where you can’t on 1200 heads that are non adjustable... So I’m getting rather convinced there no real voo doo going on that makes this cam switch not work ...just clearances ...on the hot rod side of looking at things ..this mod could give you a hotter cam set up with higher lift and longer duration ..intake and exhaust to make up for smaller valves in 1200 heads ...and I’m not sure this is a discount at all .....just thoughts going around in my head at the moment as I do have 1200 heads here and very low mileage ones [/QUOTE]
