Just got my cams (bought a stock set from Muggs waaaaay back and then sent them to Colt Cams), they look awesome and can't wait to get them my Celica! These are just their mild performance set. Geoff said It'd be a kick in the a$$ around 3K.

I spoke with Geoff about those "helper" shims a couple of diffrent times. He assured me they wouldn't cause the shims to spit out, that he's been doing them that way a lonnnnng time..if i haddnt got a great deal on the webcams i ran in the 5sfte, i was getting the colt cams, with geoff custom grinding me a set of staggered cams, with the helper shims.
Besides, not like your spinning 9k rpm with a 5sfe anyway. The reason for them is that toyota don't make a shim thick enough to make up the diffrence. I wouldnt bother with a shimless bucket conversion on a 5s head, kinda pointless with it never seeing above 6.2k rpm, IMO. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
