Ouch. Bet the cams werent cheap either. U got an exhaust manifold to go on? SBD? Sourcing an xe for my conversion just now and thinking of getting cams and an exhaust manifold put in/on at the same time as the conversion. What cams can you get away with without any head work? 270ish?

Thought x14xe's were 89/90bhp standard?
8v's were 80bhp.
