Default Great Idea to increase power

Questions: Is there enough intake and exhaust flow to warrant increased lift and/or duration? Would the port timing have to be adjusted to compensate for the increased duration? Would it still idle reliably?
Dont you think the manufacturers have taken the cam profile into account and optimized it?

That said, I think *if* you could improve intake flow, the engine might respond better to larger valves rather than a different cam profile.
