Title: 2.3 built head
Post by: SR71blackbird on September 29, 2010, 05:14:18 PM

yes they will be just fine
I have a set in my turbo ranger about 40k miles and no issues

there are a few details tho  to get them to set up proper, I have insytalled about 15 or so sets of them.

Btw.. on the Bo stuff...  there is no cam card, so good luck getting your cam degreed in proper

thats just luck of the draw, Bo keeps his specs super secret, 

a bolt n go is a lucky start.... with out the specs, how do you know the cam is set the way it was designed? evry other cam supplier sends a card, but bo..
