European 16V Corrado camsets from the Digifant 16Vs???

[drew@scirocco.cs.uoguelph.ca (Drew MacPherson)]

ABF is in fact a 16V Digifant engine, 150bhp.

INstalled in Golf GTI 16V, Vento (supposedly, although I could not find 
evidence of it) and Passat.  Not in Corrado though.

Part numbers for cams:

ABF	INTAKE	051 109 021
ABF	EXHAUST	051 109 022
