cams identification

[S15ETA]

is it possible or does anyone know if the evo 1-3 cams are numbered for identification????

 

[mrcyborg]

i have been asking the same question!! cant seem to get any answers.

 

[DOUGMO]

yes, i believe there is different letters on them,
on cvaps site they list evo 3 ones as having "c" and "d"

VR4 cams have numbers on each cam, from memory a 10.5 and 9.8.. i think...

GGSR cams have a 10 and 8.5.. i think...

Auto VR4 have stamped with a K with 3 dots on intake and a K with 4 dots on exhaust

from what i can remember, its how you can tell the diff.....

 

[S15ETA]

can anyone tell me what it says on evo 3???

 

[DOUGMO]

C & D apparently harry

 

[S15ETA]

sorry bout that george hahaha i meant evo 2 derrrrrr

 

[DOUGMO]

Ill have a look tonight harry - i have a set of evo2 ones in the shed

 

[mrcyborg]

ok i have a set that have on the exhuast cam: C with 3 dots
the intake has a C with 2 dots.
at the other end of the intake it has a 1 in a square and a 2 below it in a square, on the exhuast cam i cant work out the first number in my picture but it also has a 2 in a square.

i have measured my rvr cams and evo ones and they both have 35mm total size lift, i guess its the duration that changes.

did you measure it with a vernier? i think rvr's are something like 34.43 and evo/vr4 are 35.54.

yes, i believe there is different letters on them,
on cvaps site they list evo 3 ones as having "c" and "d"

where abouts are the markings located? ive got " C " & " D " mArked at the opposite end of where the cam gears bolt into. not sure if its right tho.

 

[DOUGMO]

i have a B with six dots on the inlet cam
and a B with five dots on the exhaust cam

out of my evo2

Oh and grabbed this from one of my Eclipse Turbo workshop manuals (7 bolt crank) There's A's, B's, C's, D's and E's on them too which might match up

andrew just confirmed that the C and D are marked at the end face..opposite side from where the

cam gears bolt in to. i think thats what mine are. ill take a pic so you guys can let me know if mine are
