to Terry Burtz,

Does your new camshaft's exhaust lobes have enhanced clearance with the connecting rods? Its lift specs appear to be equal to my Stipe steel B 340 touring grind cam. The Stipe lobes pass extremely, dangerously close to the connecting rods. My engine builder says the cam should not be touched and that the rods need to be relieved and rebalanced. My hope is that your new cam provides better clearances.
