Do I have the wrong cam in my engine?
I was checking the condition of my timing chain in my '85 300SD, using the dial indicator method on intake valve#1. At 2mm of lift, I found that the scale on the balancer indicated approx. 16 degrees. On looking at the service manual, I saw specs for "08" and "05" series chains. I checked my cam and found the number "11-" stamped on the back!!!
Do I have the wrong cam in my engine?
Maybe this is not the stock engine. How do I identify it to be sure?
