Last week I bought a 454 short block, freshly bored .030 over with new flat top pistons, rods, steel crank, cam, lifters, double timing chain, HV oil pump, moroso oil pan, and brass freeze plugs for $500. The guy had it built and has a build sheet on it but hasnt found it yet and cant remember the cam manufacturer or specs. I pulled the cam out today and got these numbers off of it.

These #s are on the rear face,
115812
372080
371971

These #s are on the shaft,
A8
CWC
D9
22

Does any one know how to find out what cam this is, or could find out for me??

degree wheel and a dial indicator are your best bet.

Did you ever figure out what cam this was??? Its likely a stock cam. The CWC portion on the stick itself means the cam blank was made by Campbell Wyatt and Cannon. They make the blanks for just about everybody to grind including OEMs. Most of the big boys like Comp Cams, Lunati etc have CWC remove their stamp off the blank cam so I'm thinking its not an aftermarket grind.

Not yet, its not a stock cam. Im still waiting on the spec sheet from the guy I bought the motor from.
