My new '85 urq has an upgraded cam from Kim Collins in the
UK (installed 6 years ago). I'm not sure if it's aftermarket,
or maybe just the WR cam. I plan to check it out when I pop
the cam cover to be painted and fix a gasket leak.
I also received two spare cams with the car. They both have
VW/Audi logos stamped into them, but no complete P/N. Can
anyone give me the secret to identifying them? The markings
are as follows:
- Cam #1 -
---035-----(VAG logos)-----417A
W
--GERM---------------------MGN3
- Cam #2 -
-(triangle)---WZO---(VAG logos)---8
---034A------5008----Germany------8
I'm pretty sure one of these is the stock cam. The lobes on
#2 are visibly sharper (less duration?). Is there any way
to decipher the markings? 035 corresponds to the first set
of the stock cam P/N, and 034 is found on various others.
What's the best method of measuring their dimensions/specs?
TIA,
