On both the Sparks and MegaCycle web site's they are within a Few dollers of each other. Do you know if you are going to have to fly cut the piston for this cam or not?

What pistons are you guys running with this cam? Also have you done anything to the valves i.e. bigger valves? I wanted to put one of the high rev cams in my raptor with 12:1 105 je piston, and was wondering if I would have to modify the valve reliefs for clearance????

So with the +1mm valves will you have any clearance issues with the piston hitting on the valves?
