Cam shaft runs in them, oil feed better at a guess.
And they're blue.:dancebanana:

They give more consistent oil pressure especially at low rpm and I'm prove scavenging which reduces oil pressure in the heads to improve valve timing. It's worth a couple of hp but the real benefit is the improved lubrication which means I can run the more aggressive cams.

The more aggressive cams that the post office may have lost apparently.

Agressive cams? It’ll become a torque monster!!!

It should increase the torque by around 25%.

I will assemble the cam plate and prep the oil pump and fit them on Tuesday weather permitting.

All the rusty bits would drive me nuts but I guess you get a lot of salt on the roads up there near the North Pole.
