do i need to change my cams to run the dizzy setup required for r1 carbs

Or can i use another ignition setup?

Anyone got anything availalbe or a link to best option

Iv search for all this info but varied options

Ps going for super smooth look so anytihng small and hidden/easy to hide would be best for me

It looks like a poorly painted engine bay with brake pipes covered in overspray. The engine I assume is a 2.0XE?

You dont have to change the std cams, but to make full benefit of some twin carbs, you could go for longer duration/higher lift cams. That will move the power band up the rev range depending on specs, usually trading a bit of low end grunt for extra top end revs.

The best ignition would be mapped ignition, but if you want a dizzy for cost reasons, try looking up H&H on the net.

No you cant use a dizzy with that exhaust cam because its a dispak engine

Dude, take that end cap off and just look inside, or take it off and take a pic then we can tell if you need to change the exhaust cam or not.

Sorry if im not understanding this right but

Its coscast head and mate said it was weird to have dispak???????

Thge head makes no odds, sure its strange that a late engine has one, but they (coscasts) are literally scattered at random now accross all engines.

ok, i whip cover off and have a look, is there anything i should esp be looking for?

I wouldn't bother with a dizzy, Megajolt is what your looking for, small, easily hidden and about the same cost as a new dizzy set up from H+H, won't have to change the cam either.
