ID 32 V8 camshaft?
I have a couple of cams that I took out of 32 blocks. On is a cast with a very narrow casting line. The other one is machined all over. I don’t think it was done for lifter clearance. The machined one has the early fine tooth sprocket and the cast one has the later sprocket. Both are press on. Both engines had been rebuilt long ago.
I hope one of them is the correct 32 cam but I have no idea how to ID them. |

They weren't cast, so you can put that one aside.

Re: ID 32 V8 camshaft?
Were they machined all over like a billet cam?

That's how they were manufactured, machined from a billet. It was a very costly and wasteful way to make a camshaft, but rare is one with excess wear.

Probably find its a 'steel' cam.
