Does your friend just have the camshaft itself? You can get the whole kit with everything included minus a tune.

You need springs, possibly new lifters (depending on the condition of your old ones), some gaskets, and probably a tune to make it all run right. I used a pcmforless.com for a mail order tune.

springs, locks, retainers and a timing set are mandatory. Roller rockers, new lifters, hardened pushrods, tune etc would be wise.

like docspeed I got Alan at pcmforless.com to tune my car after the hot cam swap. You'll also need to get new springs and their hardware just like MattZ28 mentioned.
