Hi anyone know what the biggest cam I can put in the 6 engine? Iv been told that the piper fast road cam or any the equivalent to, is the biggest I can go without valve/piston collision, can anyone tell me how true this is because I would like to go one up from the fast road cam

Thanks Sam.

There is a seat height lever on the front right corner of the drivers seat surround, maku sure this is at its lowest, otherwise you may need to get an aftermarket seat.

moxigti6 - please start a new thread for this question, or this thread will get confusing

What is wrong with having it as everyday car? I do so. Drive with LPG on simple routes,turn on petrol when having fun. I see no problem at all
