    Pulled this cam from an older built engine. Came out of a 350 block with 305 heads. Id like to figure out exactly what I have. I found the average of each lobe and it comes out to roughly a .406/.430 lift.

    Besides a door stop, does anyone have a clue on the manufacture? Notice the paint markings.... ‍

    cwc and ep1 are pretty common casting marks on chevy cams....they don't tell you anything about the grind.

    My lift measurements already have the 1.5 factored in. Its a very mild cam.

    As I read your inquiry you were stating lobe and not valve lift….I'm deleting my response..
