Cam Question (8V)

[pbureau@attbi.com (ATS - Patrick Bureau)]

Well the GTi "G" Grin was an euro thing only.
the "N" grinds are to be found on 1.6L heads (unsure what year/engine codes)

remember you need the distributor gear from teh 3a to put on your JH
distributors,
need to swap oil pan and oil pump from JH-> 3a, and there is also thuis
plate you have to install on the 3a (I beleive Techtonics used to sell this
part)

=>Okay.  Simple question, but I need someone to shed some light on this G
=>Grind / N Grind Cam thing before I toss a few engines in my garage clean
=>up.
=>
=>I have the old '82 (1.7L - so it should be a 1.6 head right?)
=>
=>I have an old JH complete and I have access to a 3A.  My plans were to
=>put the JH head onto the 3A and drop it into the '83 driver for a little
=>more fun while the project slowly eats up all the rest of my spare time
=>:)
=>
=>So,  Is the cam in the '82 1.7L an upgrade for the JH head then?  Should
=>I save the cams from these engines before they get tossed?  I know I
=>have to save the exhaust manifolds - and yes they are spoken for :)
=>
=>Tinkering minds want to know....
