Hi all
I am slowly and opportunistically collecting bits for my 650 engine build and have a few questions.
I currently have a 500 engine, a Panda30 head, and a NOS Weber DGF carby. I have the opportunity to buy a 40/80/80/40 cam at a good price.
Will the 40/80 cam be too much for an engine that I want for weekend drives?
Will it all be too much for the 500 engine casing? I heard a long time ago the 500 case wasn’t strong enough and it was better to start with a 650 case (which I don’t have). I don’t know how true this is though.
If I’d be better with a 650 case, where might I source one? I’m in Australia and it will be quite difficult and costly to get one here I think.
I’m a bit of a way off the engine because I need to finish the body, but since I have the chance to buy this cam I thought I’d ask.
thanks
Michael
