==== Cams ====

On US models, you should swap the stock 107 intake cam with the higher lift 104 cam. This does sacrifice a little power at the low end (below 3k RPM) for top end performance.

==== Cam Gears ====

==== Cam Follower Shims ====


It is very possible, after an engine rebuild, that your valve clearances will be off (the distance between the cam and the follower). They should be 0.005 - 0.007" for the intake and 0.010 - 0.012" for the exhaust. The shims can be purchased from a Lotus parts dealer, but the same shims are used in other engines. The shim diameter should be between 0.61" - 0.63".
