I can't say what a hotcam is like without rockers but I love mine with my 1.6RRs.

 

if you're tearing it apart, do it right. if you're just doing the cam the just do the cam. if you're going to tear it all down, replace everything you're breaking down....just the heads, do all the headwork, heads and intake...port match the intake and throttle body, get new rockers/springs/pushrods/lifters and guideplates if you need them.

 

Im thinking about throwing in a LT4 hotcam soon, what about fuel injectors and would a 52mm tb help out any, and I would be running 1.6rr's.

Simply install the hot cam kit as it comes. Replace any wearables (timing chain) or consumeables, (gaskets) and leave everything else alone. A big TB will only kill your responce and torque. Big TB's are only effective with larger cams and agressivly ported heads, so in this case it would be a waste of some serious coin (I bought the AS&M 58 when I finally out grew the stocker). Ditto for the injectors.

 

Thanks alot for the suggestions 526 SS 96.
