Ok, so i have been throwing around the ideas of more horsepower and think i would like to take the next step with cams. Now, my question is if i buy cams, and THEN want to buy new heads that are ported and polished, will i have to make sure the heads are compatible with the cams? OR should i buy the heads first and then the cams, or should i buy both together? thanks all.

do some cams then when you get the $1500 for heads do them

So i can order any cams for the 2V and when i get new heads they will swap right over no problem?

if u buy head first u will get more horsepower when u put the cams on....if i were u i would put heads on first!!!

To answer your question, you can buy any 2v cam you want and install it (and valve springs if needed) and then later down the road if you wish to upgrade your heads they will swap over to the new heads

it doesnt matter what order you do them im. just get what your budget allows for now and save up for the other. it would be cheaper to get both installed at the same time because a cam install on heads that are already off the car costs very little.

Cams first.

I had the same issue...i chose to wait and buy heads and cams together but if your just getting a mild cam like VT st 1 or Comp 262ah which won't require a spring upgrade then you can get cams now. Also i don't like tearing into an engine too many times so i try to get everything done at once.

If i am planning on getting a blower should i buy the bblower cams with the heads?

yes definately...they will work fine NA until you get your blower. Some guys actually run Crower St2 blower cams in their NA setup because they work so good.
