Is the 1.6 non turbo cam the same as the one in a 1.9 IDI?? Just wondering as I have one and I'll keep it if it'll interchange.
Any info appreciated. Thanks.
I believe smokey eddy used his original 1.6td cam in his 1.9 prothe head.. and from what I have read the 1.6td and 1.6n/a are identical.. so all three must be the same..
maybe someone who knows for sure can chime in..
there are subtle differences between the cams, but not enough to affect fitment or performance.
I think it had to do with changes in emissions standards.
the n/a and td 1.6 cams have a profile thats very close to the same. 1.9 cams have less lift.
might save the 1.6d shaft for the 1Y as i imagine it's a little less strict for emissions purposes!
