Here is a used re-ground cam. I checked one lobe and it shows about .287” lift, so maybe that’s what they ground it to, or maybe it was originally .290 and has .003 wear. I have no idea who ground it or any other specifics. It was in an engine I bought for parts. Includes bearings in picture and the bronze rear bearing that was in the block with it. First $290 plus shipping gets it. Inside the USA only, please. Email if you want it. Include your address so I can figure shipping. I don’t get pm’s and might not see a post here. Thanks.

Adam,

I don't believe that's how you measure the lift of a camshaft. It's a ratio calculated by the lobe nose to heel measurement minus the measurement of the base circle.

If he zeroed his indicator on the base circle, then what he shows & states is correct.

Please ignore the comment by Modeltmark, he doesn’t understand what he’s looking at. Jerry did get it correct. Thanks Jerry. It IS exactly what it IS.

Adam, is your .290 cam still for sale?
