Camshaft choice
« on: December 27, 2008, 05:03:08 pm »
Hi, Guys,

I have just replaced my 12hp flathead with a 12.5 OHV kohler. I have gained a small amount of power straight up but am curious about doing somthing with the cam. Does any one have experience with a cv12.5 motor that could give me some advise as to the lift and duration that i should look at using. Also what timing do you use for these motors. Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers
