I picked up a solid lifter roller cam used but did not get a cam card with it. I have been trying to figure out how to determine the lobe separation angle and also how to determine duration.
I have a dial indicator and base and using V blocks of wood I can determine that lift is .495" (cam lift X 1.5)intake and exhaust. I don't have a spare motor laying around to stick it into. I do have a degree wheel though and wondered if it was possible to somehow attach it to the nose of the cam and then use the V blocks?? If anybody has any suggestions as to how to determine this information, it would be much appreciated.
There are some numbers on the end of the cam but I don't have those with me. I will check those today and then post them here to see if maybe somebody recognizes the numbers. I was told though that the cam may have been re-ground at some point in time. :-(
