Everything will swap over. If you decide to go with new cams, try HKS, TODA, Corksport and check some of the Aussie Cam manufacturers.

All their stuff is high lift, long duration NA cams.

ummm sure they will, you just need to use the ex cam on the intake and vice versa. They do fit, it has been done.
