NewZed Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 There ain't no K on that list. Maybe it's an F. mpresley, post a picture just for fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, right where the A or C or other letter is supposed to be is a big K, very plain and not smudged or anything. When the wifey gets home with the digital camera I will attach a pic. The only other marks on cam shaft are 5 Japan and E30. It was in a wrecked 1981, 280ZX, nonturbo, auto trans, 2+2. Thanks for the help.

ctc Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) I have a K cam also. Came in a P79 head, don't know year or what car. Wanted to post slightly better picture. Edited January 6, 2012 by ctc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Huh, looks like the 'F' may either be a typo on the site or the P79 ('81-'83 NA ZX) came with an 'F' or 'K' cam. Anyone ever see a Nissan-stamped 'F' cam? It seems that a 'K' cam also came on the L24E (Maxima). You can measure the specs to be certain.

NewZed Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 The cam specs are in the FSMs, up to 1983, but not including. The 1981 specs match the F specs on the atlanticz page. The atlanticz F should probably be a K. Or K and F are the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
