as mentioned earlier, the XU7 and XU10J4R don't have them.

any RS head running decent cams don't run them either.

And remember, as said, you aren't designing an engine to last 200000 miles.
You pay your money and take your chance! Simples!

The old follower wear issue is present even with Spray bars, on the 8v XU engine at least unless you use the right 76 Racing oil, we found with this from Follower wear every 6 race's, none was present after a year.
As the cam has similar lift and design the same applies for this engine, Go solid and save allot of hassle too

CAT Cams were reasonable, I paid around £600 for Piper buckets and springs as I wanted stuff that would definitely match my Piper Cams, and did'nt want any nasty suprises.

Speak to Roland Rat / Ash he's got some.

But you'll need quite a bit to make them work in your engine so you'd be better off buying a GTi6 engine, loom and ecu considering the going rate is only £350ish.

Ditch the standard rods and get some steel ones (They will come with ARP bolts anyway) then you can make the most of your cams and pistons by bieng able to raise the RPM. And yes, you need new headbolts Dry

Sold mine as it's going to be spending its (probably short) life at max RPM so I wanted the best I could afford. My PEC rods are sold yes, and they would be fine for anything other than endurance or circuit racing as the time spent at 9,000 RPM is minimal. Speak to Miles for ARP stuff, I'm sure he can point ypu in the right direction. And I don't see the point of fitting cams and race pistons if you limit your potential with stock rods. I'd wait till I had the money to do it properly. Just my tuppence worth though.
