what kind of cams are compatible with RWD sr20det

[luv2spedup]

i was wondering if cams from a FWD sr20det can be used on a RWD sr20det

I dont think so, if for no other reason than a fwd cam cant be adapted to spin a rwd distributer/cas.. and vice versa.

Actually the FWD cams and RWD cams are interchangeable, all you have to do is switch the Dowel pins on the Exhaust cam, the RWD Dowel pin is longer, but you have to use the RWD cam gears! Most machine shops will switch the Dowel pins for free or really cheap! I have a FWD cam in my car due to a broken cam! Lots of people have done it, its simple! If you have the cams out you will know what dowel pins I am talking about, the one that lines the cam up with the Cam sprocket.

Thank you for the correction. I had no idea that was possible.

I found out the hard way because my cam broke somehow when installing it so I had to find out quick and used my friends FWD cam. The intake cam you shouldn't have to change anything, just the exhaust cam dowel pin. Glad my mistakes can help others ha ha!

Just FYI.

The SR20DE engine in the B13's have a hotter profile than our stock DET cams. This could be a cheap upgrade, as they have been proven to gain 6whp on the DE's.
