5sfe Cams

While doing my valve cover gasket on my 97 Camry, i realized the cams are really easy to change. I was wondering if i can get performance cams for it & if so from where?

I know they have performance cams for 5sfe mr2's, will these work also?
And what kind of tune if needed?

"The motor currently outputs 147 STD rwhp/153 STD rwtq as compared to the @105 HP and @125 tq of a stock n/a MR2. This was accomplished with larger cams (Webcams 294 grind intake, stock exhaust). The head was also ported and polished and had a 5 angle valve job. There is a custom built 4-2-1 stepped tube race header exiting through a 2.5" straight pipe. A few other performance mods include a Crane performace coil, an Apexi intake, and Jacobs spark plug wires. This is all being controlled by an Accel DFI gen 7 stand alone engine management system."
you need more than just a cam for what you were reading.......

Keep in mind you need to keep up on timing belts if you do this, otherwise you might find out the hard way you built an interference engine.

IMO why would you want a engine designed for low-end torque to rev high?
5sfe 7000rpms basically pointless

EDIT: i take that back this is
7700 rpms by the same guy!

i hope you get my point.

I don't. Cams push the power band specifically in this motor (MrT 763 Webcams) higher. In order to get the full use of the cams, higher rpms must be reached. Pointless i think not. A lot more to that 5sfe than just cams.

It actually involves extensive work opening up your Ecu and replacing the stock timing crystal of 16Mhz and soldering in a higher Mhz Crystal. The individual who Over clocked there Ecu is also running on SMt6 for extra tuning.

alright then let me spell it out for you. FE<GE. the economy heads arent made for high reving. thats why none of them have redlines higher then 6500rpms. like i said before and this is my opinion making a 5s rev to where a 3sge revs is pointless to me. if you want the torque of a 5s and the ability to rev high do a 5sge because you atleast get the better head.

FE<GE Thats a know fact. What im saying is also fact. Its a bit easier and maybe even cheaper to throw cams in a 5sfe, rather than tear down your motor find a 3s head drill a 5s block for coolant passages then throw it back in...... But what the hell do i know. OP Webcams is what your looking for.
