    I just don't like the delivery from it, you really have to wring its neck, and to further cam it surely that'll pull the power even further up the range?

    I'd say roughly around £400-500 in parts plus maybe another £200 odd if you get a new genuine oil pump with labour on top of that and that's for standard parts
