July 10, 200421 yr chiltons id's cams as 1600 has 51 stamped on it and 1800 has 72 stamped on it. well i was told when i bought my dual carb 1600 jdm engine that the cam and heads were different than your average ea71. the cam is stamped "66" or i suppose it could be 99 but whatever. anyone know any of this? also "g" is stamped on the cam, closer to the big gear. supposedly brats and FE's have different cams too. does anyone have any info? even just to say what # is on your cam?
July 10, 200421 yr Well - I can say that the parts manuals I have make no distinction between Brat's and any other EA81.... there is only a single part number listed for the cam, for both the EA71 and the EA81. GD
July 10, 200421 yr The cams for EA81's come in 3 varieties. Turbo, solid lift and hydraulic. I don't recall the numbers right now(10 hours on graveyard shift).
July 10, 200421 yr Man - I must have been tired - what I meant to say is that there are no differences in the part numbers for each model..... ie, there is no distinction made between a cam destined for a Brat, versus one meant for a coupe. The various models of engine's have different numbers as Qman pointed out..... I would guess the EA71 and the EA71 hydro-lifter have different cams as well. GD
July 15, 200421 yr Author bump. can anyone else offer me anything? what would the cam on a late 70's FE say? can anyone at least say if a 79 fe has the same cam as say a 79 GF?
