Default question about cams

Found a S13 in a junk yard today and the date on the inside of the door says 4/91.I just wanted to make sure these were the more aggresive cams 240/240 or whatever they are.valve cover doesnt look like its been removed so the cams should be in good shape.

4/91 is early enough that it should be a 91 model year. They usually don't start making next years model until July or August. Sounds dumb, but check the glove box for an owners manual.

scotch bright. check the vin letter thats the only way to tell. grab the one out of the 93 and the 91. put the 93 exhaust cam on your intake and the 91 exhaust cam as you exhaust. you want the more aggressive cam on the exhaust side.
