V6 cams

was just wondering if the cams out of a 1999 Vectra B , with the x25xe engine, will fit my 1997 v6 calibra SE9?

I think they're the same so a straight swap if you have a later v6 (same engine as a vectra just a different inlet manifold) however if they're camshafts from a vectra b gsi then the inlets will give you a bit more power further down the rev range :). I've got inlets from the gsi but I think the exhaust camshafts are the same, I could be wrong though lol.

Most people just get the two inlet 'G' cams from the X30XE, have heard of some people fitting four 'G' cams though.

Here is a chart for the cams, and what is fitted to what...

Here is a picture showing where the identification letter is stamped on them
