Default Camshafts

Hi there,

I'm looking to change the camshaft in my 1983 URQ Wx engined car.
I have done lots of googling and it seems a wise choice is to go for the MC2 camshaft from later audis.Seems to be a good upgrade option.
I have found a couple of part numbers for genuine audi ones, 034109021AK
and 034109021K. Does anyone know what the difference between the 2 parts is ?
Or if anyone has any recommendations for alternatives?

thanks

Hello,

your WX has fixed lifters with adjustment plates, the MC has as far I recall it hydro-lifters = no go!

Regards
