| I am getting ready to buy cams and wanted to know if there is anything else I may need to purchase for the install? I did this on my old KingPin and all I really needed for that was just the cams and gears at the time.
Thanks Dwight |

Pitt Meadows, BC Canada | There are a number of 'threads' on the subject - you should do a SEARCH for 'cams'.
Check out the current thread "2008 Vision Performance Advice" for some comments. Cams need a little assistance with fuel intake and exhaust and a couple of other things ... mine was done a few years back.

| I have all the upgrades needed, I was more thinking about if I was going to need new seals and such. Thanks Dwight |

| I've been thinking about doing mine also and I was told you can reuse the gaskets. |

The Vic Shop - Central Iowa | The valve cover gaskets are reusable, and the timing gear cover is savable about 50% of the time. Do yourself a favor, buy an adjustable timing gear from Lloyd and pay the extra $20 for the reusable gasket and you'll be set! |

| Hey Rylan, I appreciate your help, I also want to thank you for your help in the past with the 100/6 Kingpin gears that made a nice difference in that bike.
If I pick up the timing gear what should I set that at?
Thanks Dwight |
