REALLY not worth the hassle. 8v engine is bulletproof as a result of it being so low powered.

The code is stamped in the engine of the cam.

you'll just have massive dips.

as soon as you get the power you'll have to change gear mate

Lol @ fitting 1.2
That cam will barely even run in a 1.2.
Its 295degrees with a 7ish k rpm power range, it will idle and drive terrbily.
Its designed for track/fast road 8v's, with full mappable engine management, or twin carbs
