    Most sports require one ball, motocross requires two.

    Racing isn't a matter of life and death, it's much more important than that.

    You'll probably be happy with anything from 410 - 456 but I wish I would of went with 456 because of the lack of torque my 4.8 has and the rpm range of the cam I just bought.

    on a 31.5 inch tire i gained .4 tenths going from 3.23s to 4.10s, 60ft stayed the same bc of traction issues so thats a great gain!

    Best mod other than a tune! Check out 4.30s, that's what I'm going with. I'm on 33s.
