I found Pipers reprofiled fast road items worked very well in an Escort GTi

Had a read up on reprofiled cams and I'd rather not risk it, heard stories of them wearing out in as little as 2000 miles. What about 2ltr cams from a 2ltr zetec? Would I need verniers to get the timing bang on right?

Cheers

The issues to the best of my knowledge are with Piper and Kents blanks not their reprofiled cams. 2 litre cams aren't worth a squirt though.
