    Default Blacktop camshafts in Silvertop?

    Do the blacktop camshafts straight fit into silvertop head? I know the inlet is the only difference, can the inlet camshaft go straight in without any issues?

    I fitted them to my silvertop and just reshimmed them when I fitted them.
    I used the blacktop pulleys to match the cams.

    As above you need to swap the VVT pulley to match, no point doing so though because they have a near identical profile

    There is very little difference between the silvertop and blacktop cams.
