I don't know if there is a way to tell what cams are what.... referring to the OEM 7MGTE. I searched and all i come up with is people talking about NA cam swaps and durration numbers.

I recently had my head rebuilt and they changed out my cams… I did make sure they were aware of the cams on the GTE are different. I am now checking over the head and see the cams I originally had have numbers mid-span casted in them. The intake cam has a # 1 and the exhaust has a # 3 on it. Now my head has a intake # 1 and an exhaust # 5.



I have a spare head as well from a 7MGTE and it has intake cam # 1 and exhaust cam # 4.

There are 5 cam part numbers for the Supra, take from this message whatever you want, heh:

Intake:
13501-42020 - 86-87 N/A Intake Cam (38.36mm Lift (I think, I'm not 100% sure on that, can someone with an 87 TSRM check that for me?))
13501-42030 - 88-92 N/A Intake Cam (38.16mm Lift)
13501-42010 - Turbo Intake Cam (38.35mm Lift)

Exhaust:
13502-42020 - 86-87 N/A Exhaust Cam (38.36mm Lift)
13502-42010 - 88-92 N/A Exhaust Cam & Turbo Exhaust Cam (38.35mm Lift)



Is there a way to tell what cam I have from the info I describe? I have read info of there being 5 different part #’s

I am not looking for an upgrade, I want to see what the difference between the casted numbers are.



Thanks for any help. I'm probably just being picky... knowing that the only difference is the intake cam and possibly a very small ammount of lift.
