I'm having a good clear out of almost all of my spares over the next month, so watch this space.

I put this up for sale about a month ago, and went on holiday, so didn't reply to people, sorry about that, this time its going.

I've just checked and these retail at £216.60 for the rebuild kit. It covered less than 8000 miles in my rebuilt MPi engine and then I decided 8 valves wasn't enough Currently it is still in the engine and will be removed this week.

LATEST SW5-07 now machined from custom steel billet!
The SW5 cam has been a huge success with thousands sold but development work has never stopped. The latest Swiftune SW5-07 camshaft was developed using Lotus Engineering's latest valve train computer software to enhance the cam profile. Further gains in bhp and torque have come from using the latest CNC cam grinding technology to machine the SW5 cam to much closer tolerances which are so important to achieving the optimum dynamics of the cam profile. The same machine is grinding cams for Formula 1!
Machining the SW5-07 from custom steel billet ensures the highest quality steel is used and deeper surface hardening achieves the superb wear performance of a race camshaft.
The SW5-07 is the ideal road cam, below 5500rpm it produces more power than the 286 profile; On average you will spend 90 per cent of your road driving below 5500rpm.
Yet the SW5-07 produces well over 100bhp(1380cc. 1.5 ratio rockers, L3 head and twin HS4s). Thousands of SW5 cams have been sold for a huge range of engines from: 850cc to 1460cc, twin and single carburettor, standard and 1.5 ratio rockers, SPi and MPi injection, turbo and supercharged.

As this was in a MPi I guess its a Sw5i.


if it is I'll have it, i'm just off the M2/M20 (J3 M2) on your way to Ashford and 10 mins from Rochester so that's helpful...
Also please see you post with the loom.

[mini.rich]

It is indeed the SW5i. The loom doesn't have the fuse box on, that part was still needed I'll PM you in a bit, I'm off to the workshop now to get photo's and strip the engine down

[Ruckus]

Damn I'm not sure if I'm ever going to get this fuse box fixed!!

1 question, was the cam use along with high lift rockers ? I'm just a bit weary of excessive wear this can create...

Oh and another! How many miles did it do?

Cheers

Nope, it was used with the standard sintered type rockers and brand new followers

[Ruckus]

Wicked... Miles?

[mini.rich]

It covered less than 8000, and that was in a brand new engine

[Ruckus]

Cool, I'll take it for sure.

[mini.rich]

Hey matey, just about to go pull it out do you want the followers? if so I'll keep them in order I'll throw 'em in for free and the oil pump if you want it. It was new, probably worth using a new one to be honest though.
Oh, and I think it has a vernier duplex setup as well if your interested

[Ruckus]

I'll pm you
