Has anyone tried 1st gen cam's in a 2nd gen

I got a first gen head that has 8 bent exhaust valves I was going to take the cam's out of it and install them in my 2nd gen head would it be worth it and should I use the cam gears as well.. what kind of HP can I expect useing these cams thanks for the help!

The same amount of hp that is in your 2G cams. The only difference between 1G cams and 2G cams is that the exhaust cam as a slightly higher lift but the same duration.

Yes you can they have a little more lift. If you replaceing cams you may want to get some aftermaket if you have the $$$ if not the 1gens will give a little boost of power.
