Autotech cam fitment q's

[mr.utility at highstream.net (David Utley)]

If you are going just above a 268, I would agree with Dan...  However, if you 
are going more than that, or to the extreme of what will/won't run on CIS FI, 
it will help to have them...  I have experimented with increased spring 
pressure on air cooled engines, it can help immensely, with no wear...  To be 
honest, I really question the increased wear...  What wore up?
