Default .450 Lift Cam In Warrior

Hey Guys. I got my Cam/Pist. Kit today. I was reading the instructions and it says some 4 wheelers may need to grind down the Exhaust rocker arm so you dont bend a valve. Do I have to do this? It's not too specific in the instructions and I just wanna be sure. Thanks

I had the webcam .450" lift in my warrior for a couple years. My shop didnt grind or change anything, just put it in.

I hope you got new valve springs also. .450 is the highest lift you can get in a warrior

That grinding stuff is for if your motor has a compressions release (old pull start models). Atleast thats what I was told. I have a .450 cam but I have yet to install it because im still waiting on my new rocker arms. They do need to be degreed in though if you want maximum power.

I got a jacked up piston when I ordered mine from alba too, I ordered .020 over and they sent stock size in a 20 over box. some mix up at the factory I guess. They fixed it all up and 2nd day aired the right one to me

same thing happen to you? if so you mighta got the one I returned 6 years ago LOL

when he says degreeing, I think he means the cam. and you cant do it without the $160 adjustable cam sprocket
