I have a 1275 spider drive cam here with `40A' marked on the nose.
Does this grind ring a bell with anybody? :?
I particularly need to know what LCA it has.

Waggott used A prefix code for A Morris, but 44G for performance and 44S for standard.

Maybe it is really out of an A40 Kev :?: :shock:

PS does it look like this?

Um... nope. Nuthin' like it. :lol:
I'll take to GR, see if it can be reground to a 266SS.

[edit] looks like it will clean up ok.
[edit 2] It did clean up, it's now on its way back to the owner.
