iirc it was that the 708s produced the power with a bigger powerband, lower rpms initially and the 715s barely produced much more.
Ive not checked the graphs for ages though

OK, that makes sense.
It's just that if 708s are right on the limit, I can't see how you could run a cam profile giving a higher lift (and the same duration) or a cam profile with a longer duration (and same lift) ... I assume this few mm gap you have with 708s is at the start of the intake stroke, so a longer duration cam profile would mean that the intake valve would be more open at TDC, hence the problem. An increase in lift speaks for itself... If anyone knows how this can be done, let me know, as I'm interested to learn!
