It will be a while I suspect, and I don't think I have slotted cams in the stock FJ1100, but if I do I'll be back for the cheat sheet! Excellent video, more please!
Im doing my first rebuild. 2007 GSX-R 750. I'm trying to get every bit of horsepower I can get out of the heads, because that's where the power is won or loss, from what I've gathered. Forgot to knab me a dial indicator. Ive already written down your cheat sheet. Im willing to spend all the time to detail the heads the best I can. Would you recommend knife edging the crank at all? What about opening up certain oil or coolant galleries? This is my 3rd video of yours and inplan on watching as much as I can before going out to my shop & continuing on. I want to put a 1k intake cam on my 750 (& my exhaust to intake) but i dont know what years im limited to. Theres a 2009 1K intake cam with an Ape Adjustable sprocket on eBay for less than the Ape sprocket. I know I may have to trim the rom counter thing. Still trying to decide if i want to go High Comp or Turbo. Im leaning towards High Comp because of funds. Never done a turbo, but want to. Oh yeah, im planning on using this Duplic-Color Anodized Blue for my heads. They have green, red, blue, yellow & some other colors. Green, was hoping for a Kawi lime green) was the worst. Red & Blue were the best two. You can spray it on netallic like surfases and for items that arent shiny, they have a metallic base. Autozone & O'Reillys has it. Suppose to be high heat too. I hope it lasts!
My first time reassembling a motorcycle engine with a stock nonadjustable Cam. I think I know the answer but I want to ensure I don't screw this up. I assume I don't need to worry about degreeing the Cam in my case?
Personally i do all that as soon as i start making more power and really only racing. Kinda like if it no longer has to live on the limiter for a half hour, or stay together for 60k miles
You just need to get off the "dwell" of the lobe. You are just measuring from a point of real measurable movement. And as long as you use the same number on both sides of zero....you can get accurate measurements. I wouldn't go less that .050 or you may get non repeatable results being closer to that dwell area. Dwell is just the area where the crank rotates, and the cam is on the base circle with no valve movement for a short part of the rotation
I have a 04 gsxr1000 with a 08 head I’m copying your build same turbo all can I run a 04 intake cam on my ex degree it at 105/107 will it do good or do I need web cams I want about 400hp
Hey there, Im in the proses learning how to degree my cams. However, I wanted to ask you some questions. My bike is set up for road racing and I know people set up cam timing to move the power around. I was just wondering if you can help me with some additional information.
The number i want to land on is whatever the cam manufacturer recommends....usually within 2 either way. How i get to that number is by adjusting the sprockets. You'll have to do an initial degree run/ check, to see where you are after you did the initial install, then adjust from there
Thanks for this and the paint is beautiful. gonna try that paint.
this helped me big time, super easy stuff after watching this! Thanks
Mr. TPS FAB,,, you ain't no hack bro. Don't cheat yourself. I've been learning a ton from you past couple weeks. Thanks so much.
I appreciate that! Just having fun sharing what i can....even my mistakes!

Thanks for the video. Really a big help!!
Grate video man … hey I’m trying to build my own zx14 with drop in pistons wondering if you can “ deglaze “ the cylinder or if you ever do that thanks
Yup...i just use a flex hone and touch em up quick
@@tpsfab awesome man thanks 🙏
Hello Mr. TPS FAB,even though then cam sprockets are tac weld, are you still able to adjust the timing by loosening the bolts?
Yup
OK, thanks for the reply 👍.
My first time reassembling a motorcycle engine with a stock nonadjustable Cam. I think I know the answer but I want to ensure I don't screw this up. I assume I don't need to worry about degreeing the Cam in my case?
Correct! You should just have to line up your timing marks
When should ypu degree your cams I plan to port and polish head and new springs and valves would I have to degree cams after?
Degreeing is always a good idea...more important with higher lift longer duration cams to confirm no interference
Thank you for your video it was very helpful.
Great video, helped me a lot
Great video. What year is the engine? Is there a power adder? Which cam is used?
Thank you! The cases are 03-04 and the head is 07-08 models. This is a turbo setup for my 1000. The cams are both from WEB
@@tpsfab What did you do about the mounts?K7-8 head doesnt have mounts if i remember correct
I just dont run head mounts. Not to critical for a mostly race only deal
You may have said it somewhere and I missed it, but where did you get your motorcycle engine attachment for your engine stand?
A place called Dogwood Racing... he makes a few random accessories. This was a Busa attachment but with a small mod...works on a 1k
@@tpsfab Thank you sir..
At what point do you do any case oiling modification?
Personally i do all that as soon as i start making more power and really only racing. Kinda like if it no longer has to live on the limiter for a half hour, or stay together for 60k miles
Where does the 50 thou come from ?? I've watched other videos and 1 guy does 20 and another does 10 so ?!??

The best non aftermarket set up i ran was an 05/06 intake cam with an 07/08 exhaust cam. With that turbo 400 wont be a problem
Is there anyway I can get one of you fuel tech basemaps
Where did you get that motorcycle stand mount at ?
Dogwood racing makes the motor adapter for car engine stands.
awesome vid keep it up !!!
Hey there, Im in the proses learning how to degree my cams. However, I wanted to ask you some questions. My bike is set up for road racing and I know people set up cam timing to move the power around. I was just wondering if you can help me with some additional information.
I can try....but note.....im a hack!
@@tpsfab LOL what do you mean?
I can try to help
...but sometimes im not very helpful!
Usually more overlap is more HP up top, less is more torque in the lower revs.
Bitching video very interesting what year GSXR engine is that you are working on
Its based on an 03....but 01 to 08 are all very interchangeable
How do you get the number your shooting for ??
The number i want to land on is whatever the cam manufacturer recommends....usually within 2 either way. How i get to that number is by adjusting the sprockets. You'll have to do an initial degree run/ check, to see where you are after you did the initial install, then adjust from there
@@tpsfab thanks, tearing down my busa motor having the head done
Thanks
I was looking for 2017+ 1000 info with the finger followers and VVT..
