The requirements will change a little, but most people will not notice the need for any jetting. However, if you are a little off already, it can exagerate it to the point where it will need some changes to run properly. I would go ahead and change them expecting not to need any jetting, and see how it runs. The first thing I would expect to change would be the fuel screw because more aggressive cams really affect the intake pulse at lower rpms

Hey guys, I sent an email to Hotcams this morning asking them if there was any chance of remaking the more aggressive "oldstyle" Stage 2 cams and here was the response:
"Hello Adam, We will not remake those cams. Our newer cams 2047-1 and 2048-1 make more power than those old cams in every part of the rpm range. Especially in the low end to midrange. The old cams only made more power in the very last 500-1000 rpms." What do ya'll think?

I pmed you my thoughts... To sum it up for everyone else (was a long azz pm) My opinion is that what they say is a sales pitch. I believe the old style were in fact better over all, but could be weak off the bottom in a stock bore, stock compression engine. When adding the DRZe base gasket at the same time or a high compression piston, I believe it would be almost a total gain from idle to the limiter. If you have stock bore, stock compression, and like to ride some gnarly trails, then the new style may be better for you. If you ride MX, drag race, or run some wfo trails, I think you will like the old style better. Especially if you raise the compression! If you run more displacement than stock combined with high compression, I would not even look at the new style hot cams because I can say that with the old style, I had absolutely no shortage of low to mid with them. The old style cams were exactly the same, intake/exhaust, IMO this was for mass production and is also the only bad thing about them aside from weight. I have had very good luck combinding the old style intake cam with a bigger exhaust cam from Web. I could go on and on, but I wont...

i have old style in/ex cams on both my z's, and my seatofthepantsometer says that guy is trying to up his new cam sales. i have 2 z's currently, one heavily modified, the other stock other than cams and exhaust. they both have insane torque down low, gnarly top end horsepower, and there isnt a flat spot in between. on top of all that, both of the quads have a perfect idle, and start great as long as the batts charged fully, (i wish i still had the auto decomp.)

I have a larger Web cam grind and I don't even notice the absence of the auto decompression unless the battery is low....but I fixed that by getting a 180 amp battery to replace the 120 amp stock battery. Auto decompression is only needed for the weak battery people and guys on 14:1 compression.

The old style cams have more lift, more duration, and better lobe centers - they outperform the newer versions in every way.

how did the old hotcams without the decompressor work for starting? was it more difficult in cold weather? I was on the hotcams website and only seen thier new style cams they didnt have stage 1 or 2 just 1 part number for intake and 1 number for exhaust.

They crank ok, but when used with high compression or a poorly tuned carb, after time it will take it's toll on the starter clutch. Im on my second one.
