I got this cam with a car I bought, and I am not sure what it is. I took some pictures of it, including the markings on the end of the cam. I had someone on anther site say it may be a stock LS cam. Any help would be appreciated! ![http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7226/7077719453_90f5299354_b.jpg](http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7226/7077719453_90f5299354_b.jpg) ![http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7093/6931645236_564e9df74c_b.jpg](http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7093/6931645236_564e9df74c_b.jpg) ---

It looks like an LS1 cam but I don’t know about the numbers on it. ---

It’s not a QR code (they always have 3 registration marks on them), but it’s some sort of manufacturing 3d bar code. ---

So it’s the same cam that’s in a 2001 Corvette, so I’ll market it as that on eBay! ---

Might be worth $50 if you’re lucky? I think I gave mine away haha. This wouldn’t really help any engine unless you wanted to do a lot of work for maybe 10hp out of a 5.3l? ---

John looked it over and says it looks like it has not been ran yet. There are no signs of wear on any of the lobes at all. I wonder what this cams story is. If anyone can use it, $30 takes it! ---
