friend here is buying another friends motor...

we went over and measure lift and duration with a dial indicator and a degree wheel...

cam had overlap (visible - did not measure) which makes me positive its a carb cam...

anyway... the specs (lift is +/- 3 tho)
___________ EXHAUST___INTAKE
LIFT (valve) .410" ___ .422"
Duration 165 deg 175 deg

duration... we measured when it opened, and measured when it closed.... we got big numbers so we divided by 2 to get what we have above... not sure those are correct... but those numbers also coincide to half lift....


so raby/brett/clayton others... what can you tell me about this cam? does it fit a WEB/engle profile?

motor was rebuilt many years ago... its a 1911.. and the cam definitely had visible overlap (both valves open for a few degrees, one closing, one opening)
