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.

once i did that, i installed the cams, and went about rechecking clearances.
![]() ![]() with all the helper shims installed, i only had to replace one shim! thats great, saved me alot of time, and saved zac a bunch of money. and, unlike the webcams, the shim i did have to replace was a normal sized shim, that i actually happen to have left over from one of my old heads. (when dustin did his cams, it required alot of the larger sized shims that need to be special ordered thru toyota.) with all the shim clearances in check, it was just a matter of buttoning things back up, and installing the freshly painted valve cover. i painted it with a silver metallic basecoat, then some titanium silver hightemp paint over that (the silver metallic was just to get the valve cover looking all one color, the titanium stuff is very see thru, so the silver gave me a nice even color to start with) ![]() and a couple random pics, one of the markings colt cams does to identify the modified cams: ![]() and a old vs new pic of the cams: ![]() fun, AND exciting, both at the same time! hopfully zac will be able to pick up a SAFCII here in the next couple of weeks, and he'll come down so i can install it for him, and take it over to the dyno and tune it for him, to maximize the gains from them, and clean up his a/f ratio some. enjoy the cams zac, now that your back home and driving the roads your used to driving, make sure to do a report on the diffrences you feel! cant wait to get it on the dyno and see what that power curve looks like VS a stock 5s! ![]() -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
