Head and cam swap and mileage
I have a 2002 M6 Firehawk with 14500 miles. I want to do a head and cam swap but I am worried that I may have too many miles to do it. Can I do it without having to rebuild the engine or upgrade any other parts of the engine?

Guys the miles on a motor are irrelative.
This is my recomendation upon wanting internal modding:
1- Do a compression test
2- Do a leakdown test
Once you have the results on these two, you make the decision on how to proceed.

I will also add, that if youve owned you car the entire time, you kow exactly what it's been through. If youve put it through hell and back, dont expect it to live forever with new mods. If youve always taken care of it and kept on top of the maintenance, mod on with confidence. Id rather drive a car with many well cared for miles, than a car with lower, but hard and neglect ridden miles.
