what'd ya do that for!?
blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum
do what?needed to remove the vvt cam and put in another.........damm cam bearing were fu*ked
damn, that sux, see if the machine shop thinks it's ok to install new ones and see how the cam spins. i had a tight spinning cam one time, risked it and installed it anyway, been running since.

The best advice I have ever heard:... Only take B( . Y . )ST advice from someone that is CURRENTLY running a turbo setup close to, or bigger than what you want......
still think it had 27k on it?
