just picked up a 1.6l cam..

[marc_scirocco@sympatico.ca (Marc Scirocco Québec)]

Just study the head, and you should get a good idea as to which lobe acts on
which port I-E.

Also measure each lobes with a dial caliper, so you know hoh much lift it
has, and if anyone of them is going round.

Cheers.

> well i went to the wreckers yesterday and found an old rabbit with the top
end untouched so i reefed the cam out of it and bought it with the cam gear
for 13 bucks! i thought that was pretty good..anyways i am doing a head
gasket in my scirocco so i have the original cam out to compare and i was
suprised by how much of a visual difference the lobes are in size! .. it
looks like its only a difference on one set of lobes tho (either all the
exhaust or all the intake)

there would be.. well, and iam going to port and polish the head while its
out anyways so that will add some new life to my car aswell!
