Default Best Drag Cam for Raptor

I've narrowed it down to these 2 cams. Has anyone tried both cams and have times to show the difference between the two cams. The drag would be the 300ft and some 1/8th mile. Thanks

sry, i typed that right before class tonight. between the stage 2 or web cam 685 grind. I did some calculations... the stage 2 came out to like a .385 lift, the web cam is .452. W/O writing the whole formula out, it comes out to the stage 2 is within .007 is the specified lift. So according to the Motorcycle Mechanics Institute the Stage 2 cam, is the right choice if you added over size valves.

Mega-cycle makes about 4 or 5 different cams, from smaller than a stage1 to larger than the 685.
IMO your not going to like anything bigger than a stage 2 without doing something in the area of your carbs. And with the low compression your running your not going to have very much bottom end anyway.

You can do a search on here for the mega cycle specs with my name as the author, I posted them recently.
