We did install these V10 cams. We did install them, Sam I Am.

The Sucio M5 is nearing its final state, as the cams and pullies are installed and the tune is currently underway. More will be revealed about the dyno tune as time goes on, but this blog post is specifically about Sucio's cams. Shipped from Germany, we acquired a set of Schrick camshafts for the M5's massive V10 engine. Just by looking at both sets of camshafts, you can tell something's going to change once these new sets are installed. For the record, the Schrick cams are first, followed by the stock BMW camshafts:

Luci and Zach put in a good amount of effort to get these installed. Despite the fact that book time on this install is 20 hours, we managed to get it done in a little over half that time. Not too shabby!

Wow, that engine with the covers off look scary! I'm glad they know what they are doing. Can't wait to see what it puts down.
