As I understand, this is not stock (bolt-on gear). Anyone recognize the brand and/or model?

Definately looks like threaded ends to me protruding though the cam - 99% sure those are aftermarket bolts.
Don't be surprised if you can't ID the cam. I have a very similar situation from my GA004310 engine. It definately is aftermarket with bolt on gear. Mine has no identifying marks on the cam that have turned up any matches to the typical cam suppliers (Web, Elgin,etc.). There were lots of suppliers for Type 4 stuff back in the 80's and 90's many of which have gone under since then. In my case, it could have been any number of aftermarket cams. Doesn't really matter going forward since what came out doesn't matter but I do understand the curiosity. |
