Have a used Small Block Chevy Cam for a pre-87 V8 (Came out of a 350). Cam privides .480 lift on Intake and Exhaust with 1.5 (stock) ratio rockers. I don't know the make. I've mic'ed the cam lobes and I can't measure any wear on any lobes so its seen very little use.

It comes with the hydraulic lifters which were taken out of the same engine and marked as to which lobe they came from so they can be put back on the same lobe they were broken-in on. ( This is very important otherwise the lifters are junk and you have to install new lifters.)

After looking at a number of cams for SBCs with similar lift, I'm guessing that this cam has about a 234 duration at .050" lift.

I had this in a running engine in an FJ40 and it produced about 12-14 inches of vacuum at a 650 rpm idle. The idle was a little lumpy but power brakes worked fine. Has a fair low end but VERY good mid power. I didn't really twist the motor up in the FJ40 so I can't say about the high end power but my guess is that it was also very good.

Again, I took this out of a SBC in a FJ40 and put in a smaller lift cam with less duration. This cam is not my chioce for a FJ40 but if someone is doing mud, sand, or likes to scream down the highway, this might be a cam for you.

May not work with stock valve springs because of binding issues. Check your springs before installing

$30 for the cam and lifters + shipping from 95747.

$25 for local pickup only.
