would these cam gears work for a a 7afe? i know that the engines are different in displacement and all, but im just wondering if these would be a direct bolt onto the 7afe intake and exhaust cams.

I was hoping someone would answer this question. I'm looking into getting a Fidanza Adjustable Cam Gear. I think theres a good possibility a 4AGE cam gear will fit the 7A but I'm not sure enough yet to spend over $100 to find out
oh and FYI you can get nicer HKS or Fidanza cam gears for less than that OBX for $200 This post has been edited by hurley97: Sep 4, 2007 - 6:24 PM -------------------- |

7AFE is clearly not a 4AGE... so what would make you to think it could work?

And what is the point of dual cam gears on a 7A? The 7A is like a SOHC engine - Slave cam.

Well then would a single one of those cam gears fit? all i want is the adjustability. **** i just realized that it was for the 4age motor, i was tired last night when i posted this i thought it was for a 4afe motor, but i just realized that those dont exist right? duh...my bad guys i was really tired. Are there any adjustable cam gears that anyone has found for a 7afe? -------------------- 1994 GT Hatchback 1994 ST Coupe 1988 Corolla Wagon All-Trac 1999 Corvette 2008 Cobalt SS Turbo |

Im sure that one could be found. i have tried to get one, i have called them i think about 2 years ago even, and they said they didnt make them anymore. So i dont know how many are out there, and im sure who ever has one prob wants to keep it. I will keep searching though, thanks all. -------------------- 1994 GT Hatchback 1994 ST Coupe 1988 Corolla Wagon All-Trac 1999 Corvette 2008 Cobalt SS Turbo |

sure a 4AGE isn't the same as a 7A but the question was would it work. there is no 7AGE but people have made it work. I see the point in saying the main difference between the two is in the top end so it probably wouldn't work, but I would like to know from someone who has had both cam gears in their hands how similar or different they really are.

The 7A is like a SOHC engine - Slave cam. you just don't buy 2 of them. its not like a SOHC engine, there are still 2 cams no matter how they are driven.
