Default Newb: How do I tell if I have a rev-up motor?

I bought a motor out of a 05 G35x to swap into my 95 240sx, how do I tell if its the rev up version or not?

check out https://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-drivetrain/335625-considering-buying-rev-up-motor-is-this-possible.html

on G35s, revups came on the 6mts...so since it's from a G35x, it shouldn't be a revup

I would have just asked him if it burned oil like crazy. That's one way to tell.

You can look at the cam covers on the front of the motor as well. Non rev ups have two round cam covers, rev ups have 4 round cam covers on the front of the motor.

That would be the easiest way to tell once the motor is OUT of the car, like it sounds like it was when you bought it.

You could also look at the cam angle sensors, I believe the rev up has 4 total, 2 per side and the non rev up only has two cam angle sensors total.
