Have you noticed any difference since you swapped the cams?

Ive got a set of 4 to do at some point this year when i get round to doing the cambelt so interested to know your findings.

I meant that lol, is it a straight swop ie acc and cruise control cable no extensions requried due to the longer nose

Yes basically it is...

The Plenums are a direct fit, as are the intake pipes and the injector rail and injectors etc... you will need the shorter intake ram pipes and no you dont need to extend any of the cables, some people change them for the longer cables off the 3 litre but really theres no need...

You could also change the lower splitter but really no benefit is to be gained by doing it except for the bragging rights...

I changed to all G cams on mine, and it made a huge difference TBH especially when the cams switch on....

Only thing I would want to do now is change the exhaust manifolds for the 2.6/3.2 manifolds...

Ok good review, one last question, I've seen some pics on google where the 3.0 have the fly by wire acc cable, can the throttle bodies from a 2.5 Plenums be bolted stright onto the 3.0 Plenums?

3.0 & 2.5 use a throttle cable, 3.2 & 2.6 use fly-by-wire Only other exception is the 3.0 Cadillac Catera apparently used a fly-by-wire throttle .... but you're not likely come across one in a local scrap yard

Yes
But remember to swap the bracket that holds the throttle cable too
