I have a used cam and lifters (that are marked in the order they came out) but it isn't marked on the pump end. It's built on a CWC, bolt on gear, cam blank so I know it's aftermarket.

The base circle is 1.244 and with lift 1.540, so lift at the cam is .296.
The lifters are the 2 piece w/snap ring type, still perfectly convex. Both lifters and cam show almost no wear with the oxide treatment just barely worn off. I know the lifters are not hydraulic, I've had one apart.
I'd like to ID it to sell or if it's an FI cam it would be perfect for an engine I'm building (of course I'll let the guy know what I'm doing and major discount on the cam/lifters).

I should have the tools to measure duration, but I'm not too sure how to go about it.

Some engine builders have a machine which will give you the profile of your cam, called Cam Pro Plus. You should call around. I know Mondellos in Tennessee has one.
