I have Kent regrinds as suggested by my engine builder and saw 3 to 6 bhp increase on my 1395 APE motor depending on a few other things we played about with at the same time but it made power sooner and kept it longer which was good.

No I didnt, only that what I described.
Im just curious if those street cams will work good
with litghtly modificated engine or I should forget about it.

You can put the stock intake cam on the exhast side and get about 5 hp...

I already had the two inlets installed and got more with the Kents only use it as a race bike but it feels like it would be fine on the road,I did have some dyno charts with the cams overlaid on the stock set up but they got lost after a hard drive meltdown a while back.
I remember the increase from where the stock setup but two inlets varied between 3 and 6 bhp around where the usual stumble is mid graph up to peak power at 11000.

You will need adjustable cam sprockets to set them up right.
