Yeah I've looked everywhere

I just want a standard one as well

I do have a brand new GM 1300 one but a E16 is going to be more suited to the turbo conversion

All that information seems to vary who you speak to

I know about the stamps etc but the part numbers are different

Sure I've got a e16se can here. No idea on the condition of it tho will dig it out if a 2nd hand 1 is an option.

If it's too hard to find an o.e spec cam buy performance aftermarket?

Surely an aftermarket piper or Kent cam with a similar lift will be suitable after all those companies have been making cams for a hell of a long time.

Kent are our nominated supplier in 750MC Stock Hatch for cams. We get the choice of buying one from them or sending one for checking and measuring. So they can supply standard cams for the E16SE :)
