the amazing stuttering G-grind

[scirocco.gtx@juno.com (Mark A Peele)]

The "G" grind is the factory cam grind that VW used in it's euro GTi
solidlifter cars (1976-198X)

It gives a smooth idle and noticably more power in the upper rpms
(4000-6000)  . . .so I'm told . . . 

Both of our Sciroccos will be so equiped . . .

I installed one on a 82 Sciroccotheat had a header, decked head, and 
some homemade (not by me) opossum launcher exhaust. I really liked the 
way it worked. It was noticeable, but it didn't ruin the drivability of 
the car. Ive seen a lot of beetles turn into undrivable crap when the 
wrong cam was put in. If you drive the car a lot, Id give my 
endorsement!
