Hi guys,
i have just purchased a vx calais and received a brand new camtech cam with the car that the owner had plans of installing.
I am keen to throw it in and just wanted to know what other parts i will need to replace at the same time.

Cam specs - Duration @ 50 IN - 228
EX - 234
Lift - .061 Hope these make sense they are off the spec card that is with the cam.

Cheers Coop.

Hey mate,

probably worth a search.
but off the top of my head:
valve springs
push rods
adjustable timing chain
if auto will need a stally and diff gears recommended
and a tune after

cheers,

Gav

Yeah, what Gav said mate. :search:
Plenty of great info on the forum on cams.
I just typed "Cam LS1" into the search box and it gave "500 threads" to get you started. :)
