  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

TC/TE cams

A Class
I bought a TE449 recently, and it had an Akrapovic full exhaust, race map 2. I installed an oil recirculation kit, PCV, and 17" wheels. With ZipTy's map it runs much better.

I saw a set of TC449 cams on eBay and bought them. Also I found a 511 piston and cylinder in excellent shape. The plan was to wait a year and install them, along with an Autotune module. Maybe also clean up the intake ports and tighten the squish if there is room.

I had assumed that the TC cams were hotter in the typical way, with greater lift and duration, more overlap. But some reading here suggests that they might be the opposite, or some combination. Does anyone have the specs for the TC cams, or better yet, specs for both TC and TE cams, to compare?

Thanks,
Dean
 
No, I haven't. The parts are sitting on the shelf for a future project. The bike is a lot of fun as it is. Someday I will measure both cams myself and post the info. -Dean
