No...

3.2 cams won't even fit in a 3.0 engine.

The 2.5 and 3.0 are basically the same lump with different sized heads and a few other bits and bobs.  ::)

3.2 is quite different...

You want a set of 3.0 cams. Expect to pay £100+ for a set, and yes, you do need all 4!

Yes they will they are the same head design.....

Not sure if they are the same cam shafts.

There is not a great deal of difference between the 3.0 and 3.2 engine mechnics...

Hmmm...

When I looked at this I found the heads were actually slightly different with altered profiling on the cams.... but I will defer to your greater knowledge.  :)

rumour has it that EPC shows the inlet cam is the same for 3.0 and 3.2's - but the exhaust cam has a different part number for the 3.2 ...  ::)

Me thinks that this conversion needs further investigation.How about 3.2 inlet,and 3.0 ex in a 2.5 motor. :D
