2.7 & 3.2 cam characteristics/swap

[Smallblock454]

2.7 220 HP and 3.2 252 HP do have electronic actuators for camshaft adjustment.
2,7 228 HP and 3.2 260 HP do have vane phasers for the camshaft adjustment.

Camshafts with electronic actuators for camshaft adjustment differ from camshafts with electronic actuators for camshaft adjustment in detail and are from my knowlegde incompatible if you only want to exchange the camshaft without the complete head.

228 and 260 HP engines only have single row imsbs. So they are 3 chain.

The belgium / netherlands 986 engine power is reduced by software.

Ok so the engine is a three chain 3.2 and the parts engine is a three chain 2.7.

The cams will physically fit, but what effect will it have? lower torque peak? On paper, the 2.7 cams might actually be more suitable for tiptronic street use, but thats based on prior research on the rover pushrod V8 - totally different animal.
