Hello there,

Read that some other volvo cams perform better on B18FTs .. mine is from a 1994 480 turbo.

What engine shall I look for that has a better performing cam that will fit directly on my engine ?

Cheers,

David.

the same question here, 2 types of camshaft are used on b18ft:
- marking 2and3
-marking 1, 3, 5

i found that the 1-3-5 one make a slightly bigger cam lift.
