What do you glean from this cam card?
Yes its old as heck, is it street/strip strip only for its time period?
TIA

What do you want to know? It's .500 lift and 300 duration with 84 degrees of overlap....not likely a grocery getter camshaft

Hot little cam from back in the day.
It really doesn't matter whether you win or lose… as long as you look good doing it!

Great replies, I really appreciate it.
Im thinking about tossing it in a lil 4 inch stroke short block I just did, I love the old day two stuff and most all my junk has pretty deep gears and I dont think I own a stock vert for anything.
This ride has a old set of dougs 4 inch side pipes I can adjust the packing for the right noise, so rough idle and raw and stinky fuel is great for a day 2 real street car. Like the ones we used to burn a tank a night, night after night.

Back in the 70's I put a JC Whitney 500 lift 300 duration cam in my '69 340 Swinger, with a factory intake, headers, 3500 B&M Super Holeshot convertor & 4.56 gears it ran 12.88. It was a hydraulic cam though. Sounded great.
I love the smell of Deer guts in the morning, it smells like... VICTORY!

I recall these guys having a couple maybe like speed shops in the early 70-s and this probably came from there vs there shop.
