[Mk2] [Turbo] Turbo camshafts

Post by chrishewett »

Can someone give me some help to identify the camshafts in a 3s-gte rev 3 turbo. I am not sure that they are standard. Also clearances.
I might need a good second hand set if anyone can help.
Thanks,
Chris

That is just a casting number and is on Rev2 and Rev 3 cams I have here.

Thanks for all the replies. A real help.
I have just bought a good second hand complete head. I will play about with the old one at my leisure.
I'm off to Spa now for a classic car race meeting. Will finish the mr2 when I get back!
