As rob mentioned, even with T1 and w/boxer applications, you will need very low profile cam bolts, even after clearancing the pump boss for cam bolt clearance, i use red loctite and no washers,also, i've found cam makers torque specs to be marginal and found them a bit 'loose', until i went up to 18ft lb on them.
Im also paranoid about uprating oil flow to the valve gear, and hence head cooling, as we have no 'slosh' cooling via the p/r tubes like wet sump has, this needs attending to in both T1 and wasser's, so i run mods to spray the v/springs with extra oil to keep them cool. No doubt wally and rob have T4 knowledge on this, also, autocraft are very helpfull if you have any questions. cheers all..
