As Bill Miller stated, the camshaft for the VW 1.6 Liter engine was superceded by VW camshaft 049-109-101-G (ie G Grind) as the original 1.6L cam was NLA. VW Microfiche 1-1081-MDD79-80 should show this change in camshaft.
A Judgement of the Court of SCCA Appeals, 93-60-MW (Travis Townsley vs. SOM), dated December 22, 1993, found that the VW G Grind camshaft was legal for the 1.6L engine through the year of 1980. This decision was based on homologation forms from Volkswagen Germany.
As I understand it, the ruling in 1993 was for a SS car, not an IT car (which doesn't make much sense, since by 1993 the VWs wouldn't have been eligible for SS???

ITCS 17.1.4.C Specifications -
... Parts or assemblies which the manufacturer lists in factory service manuals or parts guides for a particular model which supersede or replace original parts or assemblies are permitted. Documentation of the superseding parts or assemblies must be supplied to the Club Racing Department and the appropriate part numbers listed on the particular model's specification line.
So, anyone care to explain NOW how this part is legal???
