There are basically five factory camshaft grinds, from A10 to performance grinds.

Contents

Overview

There are basically five factory camshaft grinds:

  • 1000cc grind
  • small bore grind
  • large bore grind
  • Performance grind for A12GX, A12T, A14T, EFI
  • Hi-torque emission grind (1981-1982 USA)

However, these can be fitted to any engine. The emission grind cam was used in A12A, A14 and A15 engine -- all with same cam part number.

240/240 duration (A10 Datsun 1000)
248/248 duration (standard small bore)
248/256 duration (standard large bore)
256/256 duration (performance engines)
244/248 duration (Late USA emission)
Cam: A10 (B10) A12 (1973 USA) A12GX
Part: 13001-18000 13001-H1000 13001-H2300
HP: 62hp@6000rpm 69hp@6000rpm 83hp@6800rpm
Torque: 61.5 lb-ft 10.0kg-m@4,400rpm 9.7kg-m@3,600rpm
Exhaust open duration: 240° 248° 256°
Intake open duration: 240° 248° 256°
Intake opens at: 12° 14° BTDC 20° BTDC
Intake closes at: 48° 54° ABDC 56° ABDC
Exhaust opens at: 50° 56° BBDC 58° BBDC
Exhaust closes at: 10° 12° ATDC 18° ATDC
Lift:  ? 8mm 8.4mm

Identification

Nissan Competition cams were stamped on the end:
20181.jpg
Most aftermarket cams are also stamped there.

A10 cams are cast "180" or other numbers
Early 1200 case "H10" or other numbers
Late 1200 cams are cast "H50" or other numbers
23982.jpg
Aftermarket cams use a Nissan blank, and regrinds use a stock cam.

Duration

"Advertised Duration" means you should only compare these numbers with grinds from the same manufacturer. Other vendors may measure it differently.

Engine Size

Engine displacement doesn't matter. In certain years, all A12 A14 and A15 engines were fitted with the *same* camshaft.

For example:

1982 B310 USA
Part Number 13001-H9800 CAMSHAFT A12A, A14, A15 USA
IN: 244, EX: 248


However, in other years and markets different specs were used. For example:

1982 B310 CANADA:
A12A Part Number 13001-H5000 CAMSHAFT A12A CAN
 IN: 248, EX: 248
A15 Part Number 13001-H9800 CAMSHAFT A14 CAN
 IN: 244, EX: 248

Early vs. Late

For 1974, the A-series engine was re-designed. Because the distributor moved from beside cylinder #1 to beside cylinder #3, a new gear was added to the cam. The oil pump eccentric was moved from #3 to #2 at the same time.

Competition Camshaft

Beware, some cams have no eccentric cam for the fuel pump. You will have to use an electric fuel pump with these cams.
