    i beleive mechanically it will fit however i do believe that holden changed the cam profiles from the s1 to the s2 and therefor you would probably need to change the MEMCAL also. if your going to the trouble of changing the cam/followers why not fit an aftermarket cam for some more grunt and get the engine retuned properly on a dyno

    dude, like $50 will buy you a new engine that you can strip for parts, always handy having a spare engine round, i had one but i stripped it and got rid of the block because it was too big,

    that is exacly what i did, paid $40 for a running engine and just strip it for a rebuild, which will have a new cam lifters and a few other bits and pieces, and will be going into another car, so now i have spare lifters and cam, thats why i wanted to know if it would fit in ther series 1?
