You are correct, but what I was getting at is that with such a large duration and a smaller LSA he would have to spin the motor more to get the most out of it. With a wider LSA it makes a broader range, and therefore less of a need to spin it so high. He would net more if he were to increase the RPM, but until he gets some rod bolts he would get more benefit from the wider LSA. Plus less of tuning hassle. I should also add that typically cam manufacturers for this motor like to add up to +4 in timing to their cams.

Yes, more power and over a broader area.

Yeah, I'm definately looking forward to getting a cam. Not to mention how simple it will be to put in because of the ease to get to everything.
