Im thinking about getting an SW5 cam for my 1995 SPi. I have some 1.5 roller rockers sittin in my garage, and after reading the rockers thread im holding off putting them on. If i did get a SW5, what rating of spring would i need.

And would i need anything else?


Cheers

and they do a SW5i cam for injection

SW5 and SW5i cams are now the same (excepting the MPi as that has the dizzy drive gear machined off)

Phone up Swiftune and get them to suggest the springs to use. you dont want strong ones as you wont be revving..

TTFN,
Dave

Hiya guys, got an email back from swiftune and they say i need the SW5 'rebuild kit'. and im happy about that.


My Mini man wants about £150-£200 to fit it. is this a good price? I dont have ready access to any lifting equipment myself.

Cheers

seems good because you have to take the engine out to fit the cams and there is a lot of work involved in it :o
