The Fiat Tipo 2.0L 16v (5 door model) inlet camshaft can be used as a replacement for the standard inlet camshaft and this has 10.15mm lift. Not sure what the absolute maximum is though.

Speaking of Camshafts, does anyone have details of the Tipo one?

I think 11mm is the limit. The point that the valve will touch the piston

Thanks for the info, it does appear as though the Tipo ones are the ones to go for if you are after high lift.
