If 3/8" lobes it's just 1100 cam.
5/45-51-21.
12G165 or AEA630.
According to Mr Vizard...

Of course it may have been reground since... could be anything now really. :lol: One of my S cams has been reground 3 times and then freshened up once... :shock:

Post subject:  Re ground Cams
Usually re ground Cams have a number stamped on the threaded end. Different Cam grinders have different Cam grind numbers. Unless you know who exactly ground it , you cannot find out what profiles it has till you put it in a machine and measure Lobe lifts and duration etc.

It's usually obvious if stock & never been reground- standard smallbore cams have pointy lobes and a lot of metal on the base circle (the round part) of the lobe. Nice for regrinding.... :lol:
If you don't know what it is just get Russell Engineering (or whoever) to regrind it to a good known profile..... :wink:
