Are these things you have actually 'done' to the engine, or just parts you have collected so far?

When are you hoping for it to be on the road?

i know that i ment just the cam can i buy it from a certain place lol

Well a SW5 from Swiftune will be almost like a 850 cam...

But with doing this, I'd worry about the torque, as it could do a lot of damage!
