Can someone explain a discrepancy in valve lift specs..have done a few mods to my bike (2014 LS) with the helpfull info from this forum such as the cam chain tensioner, carb jetting & have spent a bit of time experimenting with different header pipes & mufflers/baffles & have fitted the larger Kawasaki drive pulley. I also have a 96mm wiseco piston to go in next winter (I live in the southern part of Australia) so while the motor is apart hope to upgrade the cam. Lancers stage 3 cam sounds like the way to go .. specs for it are .273 (6.93mm) lift in & ex ..& on the same blog the stock camshaft lift is given as .254 in / .244 ex (6.45mm & 6.19mm respectively) My Clymer manual states the stock camshaft lift is 0.33in (8.5mm) for both in/ex Am I just missing something here.. or are there different ways of measureing valve lift? If there are, am I correct in assuming that the percentage difference between the measurements equates to about 0.48mm extra lift with the performance cam or about 9mm total lift compared to 8.5mm stock
