Having trouble with my Corsa C12NZ engine, same as nova one. I have a few mods done to the engine but nothing serious. A while back i fitted a 285 kent cam to it, engine seemed to run fine afterwards, attempted to fit the 1600 spi manifold and 1.8 TB, but had to give up after spending hours trying to tighten one of the bottom manifold studs, because the stupid EGR valve port is greatly in the way, and the corsa bay setup is tight for room under the inlet, so i cound'nt use a socket. Anyhow i've got the original TB and manifold back on, but lately the engine has serious flat spots when warm and also has very poor idle problems.
I'm going to switch the cams to see if i can get it to run rite. The problem is, i am a fanatic nova parts keeper like most of us, and i have sitting in a box in the shed a 1300 SR cam and beside it a 1400 SR cam.
I want to fit the 1400 cam, instead of orginal 1200 item, but i can't identify which is the 1400 cam apart from the 1300 one. The dizzy drive is the same on both cams and there are no stamps or markings on either cams. Please can anyone give me any info, tips or advice so i can tell which is the 1400 cam? Thanks alot for reading.
