Here is another thread I found but just like the guy from dsm_tuners it was never completed. There is good info in it. So... I guess no one has done it yet and probably not worth it.

posted 03/16/08 12:23 PM [hr] I know this is an oldschool topic, but I was wondering if anyone has made any progress. I know people have ran these, I have pics on my desktop of them in a dsm, just no details.

I have really been debating ordering a set of custom ground 272 Evo cams. [/align]
There is still a bunch of headless chickens running around the hen house. A bunch of people spewing details back and forth and no resolution. That first post to the quote suggests that the EVO and DSM cams are near identical! So, what's the point of going through lifter bleeding, CAS alignment, just to have a very slight gain?

Lol, see, the swap is good in theory, but is it worth it? 264's are good for street use and part time track use. Good choice IMO.
One thing to keep in mind about the EVO motor is that there isn't an extra transition from crank power to ground. The DSM's motor utilizes that transition because of it's rotation, thus lowering the power to ground. The EVO has a great setup, but not everything will allow for a gain if swapped into a DSM, unless it's the entire motor, drivetrain, and electronics.
