Title: Cam Id help
Post by: ntheogen on April 25, 2020, 03:42:34 PM

I bought a Hi Riser engine out of NC recently and I'm trying to get some information on the roller cam that was in it.

Stampings indicate that it was a Holman Moody block at some point, but it was built back in the 90s I believe in its current status.

I can't seem to post a picture here but on the back of the cam is:


Stamped in the back are 2019 A & 5 95

Hand engraved are
312B- R8
E
KA0763

Any help appreciated.

Jack

Thanks, that might possibly be it, but I've never seen a Comp Cam without CC on it...? I'll call them tomorrow. Much appreciated.

You could also put the cam in any FE block and set up a degree wheel and map out the cam yourself.
Advertised duration (0.020" lifter rise), 0.050" duration etc.

Cheers

So was it a Comp?

Yes, the "E" was the stacked CC for comp cams. It was hard to recognize. I'd post a picture but it's a pain in the ass to do so here...

Thank you.

I’m not sure why but these sorts of mysteries always intrigue me...

Somebody must have been having a bad day with the engraver...  :o
