yep you can put it all together. for some strange reason....some people say you gotta break it in with light driving......other people say to beat the **** out of it cuz the rings seat better under more engine heat. I'd do some searching here on HT to make sure. But yeah...you can put the cams in. I wouldnt drive it hard at all without tuning. My friend melted 4 pistons driving it untuned and only breaking it in

why spend 500 bucks on cams and gears for 4 months? just leave the stock ones in there and wait for b00st! dont do aftermarket cams with b00st either. they do nothing but hurt ya. just leave em stock. and leave the gears stock as well, unless you wanna look cool with them
