    First step is to take that rev box out. First of all, you dont have a cam in there to need the extra rpms, and second, those cheap rev boxes actually perform worse than stock.

    For the money, the Hotcam Stage 2 is very hard to beat. Its easy on the valvetrain and makes great power.

    I hear the 02 CRF cam is a very good chose as well? Anyone else hear about that one?

    Yes, there were a few years of the CRF cam that were better (more aggressive) than others... but they're pretty hard to find now.

    For $115 you can have a brand new Hotcam.

    I agree, Get rid of the cdi box, Go back to stock or run a quality cdi, like vortex. Hotcam stage 2 works well weve been running them for years. I would also build the head if you have the cash, upgrade the valves and seats, your wallet will thank you later!
