  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

advance cam timing to help 310 low end?

Has anybody tried advancing the relative timing of the cam to the crankshaft to play the game of getting a little more low end trading off for a little on top? I've done this with cars and it does make a difference, but I don't know if it would have much benefit on a 310. I'm wondering if anyone has tried it and seen any positive results?

Thanks
 
I too have done this with cars and had very good luck, but with the bikes I see a problem.
You can only go the degrees that the cam gear teeth will allow you and that would much more than you would ever do to an auto engine. That would be about 20 degrees crank movement per tooth and about the most you would ever do in an auto engine is about 6 degrees. There does not seem to be a pin/bushing on the market for bike cam gears or an easy way to get there with the current cam gear setups in most bikes, like there is for auto engines.
