Other than installing it and measuring the valve timing, is there an easy way to identify, say, MG Metro N/A from MG Metro turbo, from MG Midget, please ? |

Not sure about the Midget but the N/A MG Metro cam has a 6mm wide groove between No.1 and 2 lobes whereas the Turbo, which is just a plain 1275 cam, has no grooves.

The Midget is star drive, not slot. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:
Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |
