Does anyone have any pictures of the markings on a genuine Isky Flathead V8 cam? I was trying to determine if a cam is a reground copy by someone else or if it was a cam originally done by Isky. So far, I have only found a picture of a new cam that I am pretty sure is a genuine Isky that had markings between two of the lobes that were done with a hand held electric engraver. I was wondering if Isky ever used metal stamps in the past like seen on others like Winfield, Howard's, etc. and later changed to hand engraving.

Thanks,
Roger

it is engraved between the lobes with an electric pencil. It will say ISKY MAX 1.
