Vn Vp Vr Vs Vt 5L engines

[2 HSV's Guy]

If you put the VT cam in a VS you need to change the Valve springs and memcal.
My VS Series III 195i Maloo had a roller lifter go bad and it damaged the cam so while talking to Come Racing they informed me of this info. The cam for my Maloo is not produced anymore so I have to get a custom grind with a little tweaking done.
Does anyone have the specifications of the cam for my car, please???

[Munz]

no point getting the same specs, why not go for something better?

I think early SEDAN VS was same as VN-VR, flat tappet cam but AFAIK VS UTE and all series II-III used sequential injection and roller cam, same as VT.
Check what ECU you have and f you have a roller cam already.

If you want to keep it stock, Crane make a Stock replacement Cam, the part number is Compucam 2020 (look up there Camshaft listings)

VS Series 1 and 2 are the Flat tappet, even most VS's series 3's Built up to December 1998 are the same

on VS from December 1999 onwards the engine's were roller cam,(mainly utes, as VS statesman were about to be replaced with the WH, but a few VS statos still had them) they Ran MAF, and Seqential injection, and the ECU in my VS is 3 plugs (not 2 plugs like the earlier V8s) was fitted to the roller cam engines(they look like a VS V6 one, and use the smaller type memcal)

All VT 5lts are Rollercam


all rollercam engines use different engine number prefixes than normal engines too

Anyone know of a good VT engine/block for sale...?

[2 HSV's Guy]

Thanks for the cam info exec24, I have no need to upgrade or go bigger I just want a replacement. The added info is priceless, this is the sort of info I enjoy reading. Sick of being told or reading crap like "if you need to change it just go bigger bigger bigger".
