hsv 215i cam in 185kw engine

[greatone]

i want to put the cam from the 215i 5.7l its on ebay was wondering if it would go in fine and with it brake anything else being in.

 

[Doctor Bob]

should be fine mechanically, its the same cam as SV5000 etc,
may need a memcal to idle nicely though

i think its similar to a crane 284

Keeping in mind it is designed for a 5.7lt engine you wont get the same characterists out of it in your car.........

but it will still add some power wont it?

yeah properly set up it should make a touch over 200kw at the motor and u will get a good increase in torque its a good street cam its similar to a crane 284.but if u put in get a double row timing chain and new lifters to be on the safe side and a memcal to suit
