And if you're bound and determined to use it, make sure you check all the lobes for wear using a dial indicator. Is it for a mechanical or hydraulic lifter???? Knowing the lift and calculating the duration and ensuring should help you make a half ways well informed guess as to whether it will require solid or hydraulic lifters..... If you install the wrong lifters, almost guaranteed self-destruction of the cam and the new lifters.
But hey, what would a bunch of millionaires know about it, right???? IMO, buying a used cam with no lifters and not knowing if it's even usable for your application is hardly a good way to save money......
btw, you sure do know how to make an entrance....Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
