When you say solex cams, do you mean having mine reground/hardened to solex specs, or just getting new cams?
If you look around you can probably find a good used set of factory Solex cams for less than regrinds. Call me I might have some.
Bruce Anderson's book says that Solex and "E" cams are the same but that is an error.
"E" cams = I 270 .405 102 lobe center
E 260 .390
Timed at 3.0- 3.3 mm
Solex cam= I 280 .440 97 L C
E 270 .405
Timed at 4.2-4.6
Very different and in a small bore carbureted or MFI engine the improvement is thrilling.
I used them in my own 2.7 RS spec 914-6 and couldn't be happier.
