LSJ Cams, need help...

I recently bought a performance cams set for my '06 2.0 LSJ & need some help w/ he installation. The cam's themselves are:
• Duration @ 0.050" lift is 247° on the intake and 249° on the exhaust
• Maximum lift is 0.499" for the intake and 0.499" on the exhaust
• Lobe centerline is 116°

My mechanic says the exhaust cam won't fit back into my newly ported heads? I guess the sensor is in the way. Are there any suggestions???

Thanks for getting back to me. It's for the 2.0 LSJ... The performance set cams from CrateEngineDepot.com. I guess there's a problem w/ the cam position sensor??

Oh okay, thanks for your help. I'll get the tri-flow cams from JBP instead...

Lol, even moar fail.

Just accept that were are no easy cams that are good for the LSJ. Triflows are complete and utter fail.

Base circle regrinds are just as fail.

Only good thing to do is get a set custom made from 2.2 intake blanks and make the camsensor work. Or live without the camsensor and plug the head.
