a6 cam vs. b2 cam
i swapped a D16a6 into my 88std hatch these past weekend, the motor had no compression in the number 2 cylinder, swapping the head solved the problem. Runs great, the only advantage over the dx head ive been told is the cam, so i swapped the cam and the engine runs like ----. Timing marks are dead on, valve adjustments are in spec. Anything advice, inputs would be appreciated.

Re:a6 cam vs. b2 cam
the head was bad on the a6 so i put the dx head on it for a temp. fix, and the heads are "supposed" to be the same so i just put the dx head on the a6 bottem end with the a6 cam and it runs like ----
A6 bottom + DX head w/a6 cam = runs like ----!
anyone know why?

This causes now matter what that you will be a half a tooth off on the t-belt due to the block deck height differences, a cam out of a 1.6L is a half tooth out of time in a 1.5L. This can be fixed with any cam gear. It's a nice upgrade just needs to be adjusted to run correct.
