First, I wonder if they even come with the new heads (question for Bill Jenkins) and if they do I understand that the valvetrain parts wear together but I plan to re use my SVT cams. I wondering if this will be an issue, using my old SVT cams with a brand new valvetrain. Thanks. Curtis Dead 98 Black SVT 92K

Its standard practice to mark all components on a teardown so the go back in the same place,unless they are being renewed...... V6 MTX 'Don't p**s up my back then tell me it's raining!!!"
