I'm glad you said think lolSimon13 wrote:febi bilstein i think
I've read quite a few poor quality comments on the febi bilstein parts, these are the ones you can get from GSF etc.
Lemforder make cams for BMW too, I wonder if it could be these..?

i remembered an ebay add selling a standard cam which was made by these folks.
Does your 2.5 need a new cam then?
I've never really heard of lemforder, do these places not have websites?
Dbilas make cams which are fairly close to standard upto full on race spec.

It doesn't need a new cam, but will probably change the top end for all new, out of matter of course.
I'm still undecided though, money on the M20 or go for an S50/2!

depends on what u want though really. pokey M20 or silly quick S50!
dbilas can provide all the valve springs etc u would need. I'm only going for a half lairy cam in the 2.7 to keep the low down grunt and a good mid range punch.
cam,bbtb would liven it up nicely for not mega outlay if you do it yourself
