Just got this engine .......Took 3 pictures that show the first lobe for the Intake and Exhaust.
Also a link that explains it but is the "pin" the same thing as the "dimple" on the cam gear? or would I have to remove the cams to actually tell what they are? they are both stamped with a number 2 .
S14 intake (232) - orange stripe, first lobe is aligned with the alignment pin
S14 exhaust (232) - green stripe, first lobe is about 4 teeth clockwise from the pin
S13 intake (240) - green stripe, first lobe is aligned with the pin
S13 exhaust (248) - orange stripe, first lobe is 4 teeth clockwise from the pin
here is the link to Zilvia previous thread........... http://zilvia.net/f/s-chassis/405846-sooo-confused-about-cams.html
to me, according to the information above, they switched the s14 cams around? So Do i have the s14 intake on the exhaust side and the stock s14 exhaust cam on the intake side?
if this is true,the durations may be the same--232,232---but they actually open up at different times,because if you look at the rest of the lobes, after the first, they start to change postition and are not the same as each other and the ECU not being tuned for this would tend to see too much air coming in or not enough? causing it to sound like im flooring it, car actually feels like about 100hp, but is driveable,compression is 165 accross,timing is correct, turns on all the time with no struggle.
so which ka24de cams do you think I have?
Also I manually turned the crank to see if there was a "I" or "E" stamped on either of the cams but there was not.
