I'm guessing Chad (cjwell) will have some insights into this, as his race kit includes new cams but I'm not sure what their specs are. Best of luck and I look forward to hearing the outcome of this project.

I believe this is normal.

It's going to be hard to get a smaller pipe without being too loud, although I think there's an akra system thats fairly short but sounds really good. Werkes is about as short as they get but the sound could be helped with the repack. There are some threads about that here.

Red Mist from Kickass? Our very own super-villain on the forum. Welcome!

I think its a cool design and something very different than what most of us are used to seeing with our bikes. Much props to you for taking on the challenge oneup. I'm excited to see the finished bike.
