I bought a talon that had a blown timing belt and I am replacing the head with a N/A one. The previous guy gave me all the parts, and I am not sure which cam is the turbo cam, and the non turbo cam. Tried searching the Shop Manual and it turns out the lobe thickness is the same on both. Can anyone tell me how I can tell them apart? I have noticed a few different numbers on them. I believe one is R-6 and the other is R-5 or something similar.
 
Can you tell me the number's on you intake cam? I can tell intake and exhaust diffrent by the slot for the CAS.
