I assumed it would be a bolt-in, though. What other head mods will I need?

These are noisy little boxes with just a driver's seat, so my audio system is based on ear cans.
Thanks for your comments. The cam replacement is a simple bolt-in swap. No extra head mods are needed to make that transition happen, but there is allot of info out there concerning the modified cam gears that advance your cam timing and that's about the only other thing I would consider when replacing the cam, since it would have to come out anyways to go on your new cam.

Unfortunately I tried to purchase one of these cam gears from 3T and I have yet to hear back after two emails, and 1+ month wait...
