1.5D cam in a 1.6TD mech head?
« on: September 25, 2011, 03:57:01 pm »
Hello,

are the 1.5D and 1.6TD mech cams the same? If not, what is the difference?

Cheers,
Matt

they are interchangable but i believe they have slightly different specs as far as lift and duration,  1.5 cam might be better who knows

as long as the TD head is solid lifter.

there isnt any noticeable difference if its a stock engine.
