Unless you are chasing well over 400 rwkw there is no need. Stock one's work fine. macka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guests Posted 24/07/05 09:51 PM Share Posted 24/07/05 09:51 PM Had a talk to C&V in Feb this year and they said they had custom cam regrinds but at the time they were a APS dealer and were wanting to wait till the APS edit came out before doing the cams on my N/A. I must give em a call as the price wasn't bad for a edit and cam grind.Been told they now do the capa edit and have left APS, but that's only what Ive been told.Good luck and let us know how you go.
