You need adjustable cam-gears and degree-wheel to determine lobe-profiles and actual lobe-centre timing

Finally need lots of dyno-tuning to make any of those cams work.

Only for race-bikes as hotter cams will only provide HP gains in narrow 10-13K rpm range with loss of TQ everywhere else. And that's only after you've dialed them in on dyno. Otherwise, you'll have losses everywhere
I agree I'm not a big fan of Web Cam to me there more of a stock replacement I perfer Hot Cam or Early Honda Powroll Cam like I had on my 72 SL 100 stage 3 cam with big valve and stroker crank push 20hp with everything under the sun she was fast even in 71 CB100 in tell it got stolen, oh in case you didn't know Powroll did high output 150cc 4-stroke to run in 85cc class 2-stroke now known as Honda CRF150R
