Should I upgrade the camshaft as well?
I'm trying to decide if I should upgrade the Cam to the Swiftune SW5-07 . I've heard excellent things about this camshaft, and it sounds like a good performance upgrade without being too lairy. This car will be for road use and I can't see me needing to race it.As ever with decisions on this car, money plays a part. When I took the engine out I discovered I've got work on the front suspension to do. The rubber donuts have collapsed, I struggled to even get my jack under the car. It's all extra expense and money is tight. I've got to consider the performance/pound that a new cam would give me.
On the other hand, the engine is already out so now's a good time to change it.
Progress (Slow)
I've stripped some more of the block down, there's a lot of muck on that engine! Brought some engine degreaser to start attacking all the grime that's built up over the years. Once it's clean I'll probably give it a coat of paint.
