Cam for a Rhino 450

Hello looking for a good cam for a Rhino 450, Any one know of a good one that has given good results? Have got a DYNA TECH CDI, Intake from Rhino Racing Performance, An a DG X2 Oval full header an pipe. Any help on a good one or one I need to stay away from would be greatly appreaciated. Types, prices,an where to get them. Thanks Rhino Nut.

i installed web cam grind 88 and i am happy they have two grinds and at the time i could not find anyone who had used the other one. I have aprx 1000 miles on it.

This is something I am interested in to but I am still undecided. I would like to see some dyno results.

East TN Rhino did you see beneficial results?

yes i like seems to come out of the hole better did not pick up but a couple of mph on top end, but i bought the 450 for the low end i knew it was not a mph machine.

How fast is yours? What other mods do you have?

Here ya go 450 guys.

Very well said ,we like the lower gear that what i wanted most of all was the bottom end, but hey if you can get that on the bottom an a little on the top hey im for it.

Web now has the lift and duration on the other cam it has higher lift and shorter duration if I rember right that is for torque did not have that info when I did mine

Only real complaint I have with my 660. Not low enough gearing. If Yamaha would have put 450 gearing in the 660, with a modified sheave for top end it would have been awesome.

Unless I'm mistaken (haven't specced out a cam in a long time), I think you have it backwards:

High lift with short duration is for fast-revving, high RPM -- think dragster, as an analogy

High lift with longer duration is for slower revving, broader power band, and typically a little lower RPM -- think oval-track racer

Note also that short-duration cams, with lift being the same, will put more stress on the valvetrain. They often require stronger springs to keep up with the faster opening and closing of the valves, to prevent valve bind or float, and this in turn puts more stress on valve stems and tends to pound out valve seats...

All this is at the theoretical level -- neither of these may be "radical enough" to be either significantly different, nor to put any undue stress on anythint...

Yes, but I think they won't split up that VERY expensive package to offer just individual components...

Ok

You can buy the components separately through other companies at cheaper prices. if I am not mistaken the only thing custom to them in the kit is their exhaust.

what other companies can you get cam through?

Web cam is the best I've ever seen have bought others and did not perform like the web did

WHERE IS THE BEST PLACE TO BUY A WEB CAM?

Bought mine from web cam

Looked on WEB CAMS web site do you recommend the aluminum retainers or the titanium? Do you know if your local YAMAHA dealership will install the cam? We have a very good veteran mechanic. Thanks Rhino nut

I was told the aluminum retianers were just as good as titanium but would make more noise in the valve train, but when i ordered my cam web told me they had dropped the aluminum due to problems so I have the titanium. a good mechinac can do the install, here where i live the yamaha dealer has a mechanic i trust so he installed mine down load the install instructions on the cam and take it to your mechinic, see what he or she thinks.

Titanium and order it directly from web cam that way u know your not getting jacked around

And yes most dealers will install it's real easy to install
