gixxer cams have less duration than bandit cams but have more lift.  lobe centers for bandit cams is 105 degrees and mine with running the 2 intakes is 93.5 also the bandit 400 has 70 degrees of over lap and what i got mine at is 66 degrees. Just a FYI

What happen then if your bike have bandit duration plus gixxer lift J? Will it run faster than stock gixxer?

That would be a better cam but realisticly I do not think you can have both you have to sacrifice one for the other or I' m pritty sure valves would find them selves verey unhappy.

Hi,
    If you are racing you deffinitly want to get the valve sprokets slotted. Its years since I've worked on race engines (Im 38 now), but I remember that if you advance the timing your peak power lowers but you get better torque good for short twisty tracks. And obviously retarding the timing highers peak power. But you can get very narrow peaky very quickly.
