Not to hijack here but have a quick question and don't think I have seen a cam thread in some time.....
I have 500efis with top ends done not long ago let's say 50 hours. Could I swap the 500 cams for 525 efi cams with out changing any thing else? Or will some changes to springs and such be needed as well?
