Default Isky cam,

How radical is a Isky 1007-R cam?

I've heard of 1007LD or LDB but not an R. Maybe someone will know.

It gets stranger, I put the magnifiers on and it is a 1007B. Hoping its mild cause I was looking for a decent 5T and ever block I have has the cam and valves pulled and the cams I found were rusty. The 1007B is in good shape.

That is a great performance cam. Will run circles around many other cams. You need good compression and larger bore and stroke to really see the benefits. Also helps to have a light car and/or big rear gear.
