This three bolt cam was given to me many years ago. Came in Lunati box with no cam card. Anyone have any ideas from the numbers?

May be a long shot but back in the 70’s the Stock Eliminator 440-6 cam was referred to as a “980” cam.

Fastramp cheater cam with lots of duration.

Check the lift on it - if around .455” intake and .470” exhaust then real good possibility it’s one of those.

Looking at the nose of those lobes it looks like one of them.

The lobes do have the stocker look to them.

That's a great idea. I'll check the lift, if it turns out to be .455/.470 most likely a class legal cam. Wouldn't be many other reasons to limit it to that specific lift. Thanks for the replies.

Not yet. I have a block almost ready to mock up, but back burner for a little while longer.
