Just make sure you lock off all the timing points (think theres one on the flywheel & 1 on the inlet cam pulley) the exhaust shaft is chain driven off the inlet one so may be wise to mark its position with a couple of dots, best to use a centre punch rather than a marker pen, and coat the new camshaft lobes & bearing points with plenty of fresh oil :smile:

Yes and no

I'm making it as quick as possible but with my own touch to things

I was going to get the ultimate road cams which arnt listed on any website but I was advised not to get these as it will buger the ECU as the lift on them is high and will keep stalling in idel

Any way I got them to send me out the normal ones and when I get around to doing the remap ill upgrade them to the others
