I'm curious if anyone has done a mild camshaft upgrade on the 2.3L Lima engine.

You can find plenty of turbo kits and injector upgrades for that one,even headers.

I've never played with one but I would bet money there are cams.

In my early years I had an engineer buddy (just shy of friend but he never made it) that had a Tbird version of that engine and it was kinda impressive.

Which year are we discussing here..?  There are quite a bit of hot parts for the 2.3 Lima's depending on what you want to do.  Its not just as simple as putting a cam in that engine unfortunately and unlike the adjustable roller rocker lifters we offer for the 3.0/4.0L engines that you can adjust to give you the same affect as a cam swap, the 2.3L is a bit more involved.

you wont be swapping in a $330 Camshaft and getting the "HOT-CAM" experience you're thinking of.
