Without any other mods, verniers and a unichip or mapable ECU they will do nothing much apart from make your engine run lumpy.

dave A you seem to slag people on alot of threads, LOL. as for the cams if you cant time them up properly then not worth the price of scrap. will need a set of verniers, some sort of ecu mod/fuelling and a few runs on the dyno. not for an armchair mechanic ime afraid.

by the way what car/ engine you got as completely different senario with cams for each engine.

I dont slag people off

but what ben has said is correct, you cant just fit the cams using standard timing marks and hope they work.
