I have a 91 NX2000. Im looking to get a header and cams. Which cams can I drop in w/o changing any cyl head internals? I understand the S1 is a drop in. what about the S3 and S4? Do i have to change springs?

get s4's, you will love them and they will work perfectly on your motor, no extra parts needed. S series cams are designed to work on motors with stock internals. i'm not totally sure but i think s1 cams are made for the ga16de.

all s series cams are drop in. Dont ask yourself s3 or s4, ask yourself s4 or s5?

So this cams or straight drop in and you don't have to change the springs? Cool I might look into the s4's. How much better are the s5's? Don't know much about them.

s4's are a straight drop in. they are designed so you do not have to change the springs. i wouldnt get s5's because people have had problems running them without upgrading their springs.
