Camshaft Codes

[lynhok]

hi everyone, im in need of more help again :roll:

this time i want to know where the letter should be stamped on my cam? do i have to remove the cam to get to it???

pics will be a great help if you could :thumb:

just picked up an engine its stamped 13sb so its the 1.3 sr bottom end but it has a pierburg 1b carb and F10 box so im a bit suspicious of what cam and head it has got:confused:

mainly need to know where the letter is stamped and how to get to it.

thanks

take off the dizzy and its right at the end

It must be a mega early 1300 engine(pre 85 iirc), with a single choke carb.
Remove the dizzy, you can then see the cam mark. Mark the dizzy position before removing it.

its the one out of the sr Nova_turbo / Ade is breaking

do the early and later sr (still carbs) have the same cam?

[Adam]

As long as vaux didn't slip a 1200 cam(same as the inlet/carb) onto the early 1300's, yeah.

Should be an SR cam, mine was an early engine, built in late '84

ok had a look and its 'KC AST1'
