have replied to your pm

i wouldnt of been able to fit it, so would have had to pay someone to do it which isnt on the list of prorities at the mo

the 1242 is fast enough for me

 

[allanhelen]

Its not as expensive as you might think, my brother paid less than £180 to have the cam changed and re-shimmed, new cam belt, oil seals and rocker gasket a 280 would make a hell of a difference to a 1242 going by what the 268 did to my 1108.

 

[paulbfd]

also what rev range is it optimised for? high up or mid range?

It's a bit of a revver, there'll be no trundling along at 1k rpm in 4th, putting your foot down and going that you get with the MPI cam!

 

[SeiSporting]

o well never mind then, i like my low-mid range power

Punto 75 does the same job.

 

[SeiSporting]

may just have to invest.............

 

[StoneNewt]

is there any point in putting a 268º cam in a Punto 75 engine?

 

[Duncan]

I've heard somewhere that you can have emission problem when it comes to MOT time with different cams.... is this true? What would a 280 C&B cam be like in a 1242 Spi?

No it doesnt the 280 is a a far wilder cam than the 75. Yes you can have issues with emissions, as the engine is needing a higher stoichimetric value than the cat wants to see, so there is a clash of interests, run it too lean it wont run happy, run it rich enough the cat doesnt like it and neither does the mot tester. To get the best out of a 280 cam you need to invest in some head work as well, then its fantastic.
