Is there any way to figure out what kind of cam the PO installed without splitting the case? The reason I ask is since I need to clean/rebuild the carbs I want to make sure they are set up for the cam. Is there a trick or am I SOL? FYI this is a 2.0 with what I am told are 1.7 heads. The carbs are Weber 40 IDF's (not 44's). I have a Compufire and SS heat exchangers. It was running like a spotted ape until recently because of grunge getting into the carbs. The fuel filters looked like they had a little poop in them. I digress. I believe the PO bought the webers and put them on right out of the box. Just looking for some advice (as always).

i agree....
you can see (within a relatively close range) what your lift is by measuring lift at the rocker. how much did the pushrod move? like the above mentioned.... if you had a degreed pulley you could check your duration.... match the numbers up to web/elgin/eagle/isky cam specs and you can take an eductaed guess..... |
