I use stage 2 web cam with the heavy duity springs, ive adjusted the valves 2 times but i still get alot of valve noise, its this normal???

 

web cam classifies their cams as stage 2?? I though they were like 737/737 grind or whatever. But aftermarket cams will never be as quiet as the stock one, maybe you can make them a little tighter but you have the chance of burning a valve.l

 

It is going to be louder than before because of the taller lobes...........I can't tell you how loud without actually hearing it.

Just be sure that you are at TDC when you make your valve adjustment. Also, did you do a CAM break-in??

 

i hate the louder sound...and what is a cam break in??

 

Yes I did the CAM BREAKIN - Keeping the quad over 3000 RPM's for the 1st 15 minutes of running it, I just did half throttle for 15 minutes then did the engine beakin because everything in the quad had been swapped just about.

 

ohh well i guess i missed that one still clicks

 

I adjust my valves slightly snug with that cam to get rid of much of that noise. Don't over tighten and if you do snug them up you need to check them more frequently.

Is it bad to leave them a little loose???

 

By leaving the valves loose you are loosing potential valve lift, which is why you got the cam in the first place. And it sounds like crap!


BRAAAAAP

 

i just rechecked mine ans intake was a little loose and ex was a little tight so hopefully
that will tone it down a little
