HEY 47: Where are the numbers, and are they stamped or cast, is the main shaft machined between lobs or with cast markings?? The lobes, how tall and thick at the base ( not wide ) The top of the lobe, is smooth round roll over, or is it peaked,with very little flat at top ??... Pictures, lots of pictures .
And a WARM WELCOME to the newbee. (rookie).... OLD....BILL

cam is out of a 59ab. The letters and numbers are stamped. Between lobes have cating marks. there is a letter K is quarter way down then 3/4 way down it is 24 A. height of the lobe is 1.5 inches, narrow bottom just a bit wider than cam itself, the top is peaked and just a very small rolled edge on top of lobe. Cam looks to be in good shape trying to get a motor together for my truck this spring.
