    Default Big port or small port cams

    Sorry wrong section. Should have been in questions


    Realised that the 7rib bigport I bought had smallport cam gears. Was thinking of checking if the cams were small or bigport (might explain why this engine feels slower than the tired leaky one it replaced). Any markings I should see to differentiate the 2. Looking on the Internet there seems to be a "5" stamped on intake and a "7" on exhaust. Could anyone confirm this. Much appreciated
