Cyl Head 7A vs NM

[Ryss]

Can someone confirm that the same cyl head and cams are used on both the 7A (2.3lt) and the NM(2.0lt).

The heads are the same but diferent cam timing.

Heads are commonly the same, but there may be small difference between very early and later naturally aspirated heads. Very early head is more likely to be NM one.
I have heard from respectable people about difference in middle oil drain chanel: hole may be absent in the head, but it can be drilled easily of course.
And I have definetly seen myself a head which does not have a threaded hole for 'white' temp sensor (firewall side). Hole with thread can be made too.

Thanks for the feedback. Now just need to find a cyl head.
