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. |

Does anyone know if the Raby 9590 Super Kit includes the adjusting pushrod or do I have to purchase that separately?

Saw a chunk out of an old push rod, tap it, cut the head off a threaded object or use all-thread, and add some lock nuts. I used 1/4 by 20.  In the end they turned out pretty close to stock. Also, those aluminum push rods are thick! |

Your lengths with the aluminum push rod will be different than the steel push rod. |
