It is a Comp Cams 96-202-4 with supposedly 2h run time. I am worried about the distributor gear. Those markings look very harsh to me. The surface pitting is not noticeable with fingernails. I polished it. I plan to change the camshaft with the engine in the car and not replacing the bearings. Benny
I wouldn't take a chance on any used flat tappet cam. Do you have the corresponding lifters? The gear looks knife edged to me, probably run with a HV/HP pump.
No. Don't run it, a camshaft is only a couple hundred bucks and not worth the risk. That gear WILL fail, and is going to chew up your distributor gear to match it in short order.
I dont see anything wrong with good useful cam. I have several sitting on my shelf I wouldn't hesitate for a second to run.......but I wouldn't run that cam. my very first cam ever bought was a lunati I must have put 3500+ runs on it over the years......it doesnt have even a spec of the wear that thing has. the specs on that cam are so small its cant be much over a stk cam
