The Isky LBD has a lot less duration and lift than would be common now so I need to pull the forged steel cam from my spare 248 at the farm for a core to regrind at Bullet racing cams.
Hi Hillbilly . . . nice find. To bad about the pond in the oil pan :-(.
I see from the thread over on HAMB that you're looking for specs on that Isky regrind. I have the 1956 catalog. Chevy and GMC cams are found on page 59 and 60:
Unfortunately, back then there was nothing but advertised (valve event) durations - so there is no telling what the .020/.050 specs are for modern comparisons.
Another thing interesting about these old catalogs is the breath taking prices. $59 was a ton of money in '56 - adjusted for inflation that is well north a $500 in today's money!
