What are the cam lobe heights on the 1.9 gas 1984? Real time

[IdahoDoug]

Hi all,

Asking for an older buddy of mine. We've been troubleshooting a lifter issue and are going to measure the cam lobes with a dial indicator. What are the stock heights on the Exhaust, and Intake lobes? Need this as quickly as possible and I'm doing a frantic search online as well and not having luck.

Thanks!

Ah - you're awesome thanks. So I measured .260 and .271 on his cam with our Rube Goldberg setup, so that's terrific news. He'll be very happy as he'd like to sell his Westy as his wife and he are too old to use it now in their 80s and he wanted to be sure a buyer was getting a solid vehicle. I'll help him get that new lifter in and reinstall the rockers so he can get it on the market. Thanks a bunch.
