Kev to the rescue :-)
Thx for the heads up on the low and mid power dropping, that's exactly what I don't want. Is this the result of the head, the cam or both? Going the whole hog with bigger bore and the extra compression is way over my head...
The cam by itself seems good value for money, after I posted yesterday I saw the post by tarzan on his heat wrapping solution which seems good for my heat issues. So if the cam by itself provides some extra power without too much drop in the low and mid range that would be great.

As a true cheap Dutchman, I have found the very best bang for buck mod. It's a bit loud and the gas mileage sucks, I may also have some new heat issues. On the other hand, there is no extra stress on any parts of the engine at all, and if it dies you can still keep on going:
