That's what I thought... but he claims the 9a in the corrado had different
cams.  Wouldn't different cams make it another engine code?  Here is the blurb
from his site:

European 16V Corrado camsets from the Digifant 16Vs. Bigger than the Euro
intake and the Euro/American exhaust cams. $420.00

I'm going to try and get a part # from him and do some more digging. 

thanks for the info!
