cam swap questions

[carmiencke]

Hi, im looking to swap a cam from a turbo car to my 90 non turbo gs. I have a few questions about it that i cant find. I will be swapping only the intake cam. Can i use my non turbo cam gear on a turbo intake cam. If i buy a cam seal will i need to order one for a turbo car or non or are they the exact same? Also any pros and cons to doing this? What kind of extra power has anyone on recieved from doing this?

Dont bother. Wont yield you any more power for all the work.

You can use the cam gear from yours as long as its a 4g63 motor. Same goes for the seal its the same size.

You will not see any noticeable change in power. Its really useless for the amout of time you will put into doing the work. But everything you said will work so if you wanna try, why not right.

I don't know the specs for each cam but I would say the cam for the turbo model has more duration more so than lift.
