If I remember correctly it is from Comp, but I had no luck searching for any of these numbers on there website. There are three numbers on the cam:
395wb38 (looks like it was hand engraved)
01897L (stamped lettering)
700-136 (stamped lettering)
I used to have the specs for it, but have since lost them and have had no luck contacting the previous owner. If anyone has any ideas on how to find out what this cam is please let me know.

if it is a comp, i believe it should have a double stamped "c" on it, if so email those #'s to comp and they should help you.

 

Anyone know if a machine shop can figure out cam specs?

 

is this it? TPIS Cams

700-136 212/226 .483/.520 .515/.554 112deg ZZ-9

 

has to be put on a cam doctor to find somewhat close specs...

best bet is to use the #'s you have.. that post above mine sounds like he's on it.

 

If it's a comp cam then call there cam tech, read him the numbers and walla. It worked for me. If it's not thiers then try the TPIS.......

 

I looked at that TPIS cam. Is TPIS a brand, because this came out of an LT1. I saw one page that listed that as an LT1 cam, but I thought TPI was a third gen car. Anyone have any input?

TPIS sells LT1 stuff as well..

 

ah... thanks guys

The only difference between a normal roller SBC cam and an LT1 cam is the dowel pin length.

 

Suddenly it all makes sense.
