I'm attempting to rebuild a 2.0 engine. Plan on using the original D-jet and 94mm piston and cylinders, stock rods and crank too. It's time to choose a cam and it seems like the best option is Raby's 9590 kit. From what I can tell the "Super Kit" includes everything except the set-up adjusting pushrod. I already have a set of modified 1.7 rockers for the swivel feet adjusters.

I just want to get some opinions on Raby's 9590 kit and if I'm missing something here as far as new parts. From what I can tell the kit includes everything I need for the valve train and this cam profile will work well with my stock set-up.

According to the Type IV web site the 9590 is a replacement for the 9550. On the forum Mr. Raby says the 9550 is iphone and the 9590 is like the iphone 5. I don't have an iphone so I don't know what that means.

How much hp do you estimate? Seems like everybody goes to 2056 cc. Is that most of the gain or is most of the gain from the 9590 cam and valve train geometry; or does the 9590 cam require the increased displacement to have any advantage?
