Is this a direct replacement?Must it be tune with PC3 or 5?

 

[Dmj_88]

Yes this is a direct replacement, a tune is not required but to get the most out of doing the swap it would definitely help.

I tought I read somewhere that you had to time them right and right is not the same as for the FZ6 cams. I am interested, but I need to research a little more. Let me see if I can find that thread on the cams.

Thank for your information.I thought is more like a "plug and play" item.Still need to get the timing right before it works well for FZ6 engine.

They are "plug and play".

You can degree them while installing to get a tad more horsepower but not required. Also with degreeing you can change what the cams do a little. Retard them and gain some top end. Advance them and gain some bottom. Or you can retard one and advance the other. Depends on what you are looking for.

Mine are installed straight up on the exhaust and 2 degrees advanced on the intake.

Great mod for the FZ even just with "plug and play"

Nice, thanks for the inside scoop on this mod. Any dyno plots to chart the difference?

For those who haven't ridden an R6/R6S the difference between the two motors (FZ6 vs R6S) is pretty amazing.

I have the R6s kit cams in my bike, which are R6s cams that have a little more lift and duration than the stockers. The kit cams where out from yamaha when the R6(s) where being used for AMA racing. They too where plug and play, but I went with the double springs on mine for protection and had them timed in, so theres no over lap. With a PC3 there was an 8hp gain, but the curve was so smooth and much better than with the stock cams..

BUMP, I know someone want some more HP!

 

[Martinezmr89]

Do you still have this? And what is install entail?

 

[Dmj_88]

Still for sale, install is a matter removing gas tank, air box, coils, caps, cam chain, old cams, then doing it all in reverse.

 

[Dmj_88]

Still have these sitting on my shelf in my garage, anyone need a nice little upgrade?

Its the same as if you had to change out shims to adjust the valves, cams have to come out, right side timing chain cover, valve covers, etc.. Its not a 10 minute job...

 

[Dmj_88]

Degree of difficulty would be a 3.5 out of 10
Time for toal install would be about a 6.5 out of 10
So not really difficult but just takes some time. Also, yes I would take paypal, but I would request you either include the 3% fee or personal payment.

I'll post some up here in 5 mins, haha sorry.

It's not a ten minute job but it doesn't take a master mechanic. It's pretty easy if you just follow the steps in the owners guide. It does however take a decent amount of time or atleast it took me quite a while but i'm a neat freak.
