    I just picked up a few new old-stock performance cams from Speed Pro / Federal Mogul - one that was interesting is a CS-178R - from what little is out there I know it's been discontinued for a few years, and I believe it fits old GMC engines from the 60's. Anyone have any old Federal-Mogul catalogs from the 80's that might show this cam, what it fits and what it fits in?
