Has anyone tried to take the plastic front on a 95-97 opti and put it on the back of a 93 opti? Would that make a vented 93? I don't know just asking.

Edit: Nevermind, just saw that part of the vent system is on the metal back part.

Isn't there a write up on how to do a conversion to a 95-97 vented opti? Would the camshaft need changing? I know the cam gear would have to be changed....also a longer dowel pin installed into the cam.
