supposidly...i was reading about it ages ago......
the argument mostly sways toward them being the same, although c16 ones alter the duration, retaining the same lift

Well, as far as I am aware, the cams in the X16XE can be used on the X14XE instead of a piper/kent pair, as the profiles are similar.
That would make the 1.6 ones 244 deg and the 1.4 ones 236 ish.

do you no the difference in lift/duration between the x14xe and the x16xe
Quote Sir Dave A
they are no different. its a common myth that they are. ive measured a few sets and apparently only the very early x14's had different cams.
