http://www.cranecams.com/product/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=23807 I found out this is the cam I have. Okay for low boost on a gt45 turbo around 7psi on a 318?

Well the turbo I'm looking at comes on around 3-3500rpm range. But I don't know anything about camshaft selection for older motors with boost. I've always had subarus and Mitsubishi

Would it be a decent low boost cam? It said mild performance with its power band being 3000-6200 with valve float at 6800.

So I know I havent been active on this post recently but I think I may have found the cam. I was searching summit and just at random typed in one of the numbers I found. 150062, without typing cd. Crane hydraulic flat tapped came up. It's the only thing I have came close to on these numbers and...

That's why I don't think it's a purple cam anymore. I'm not really sure how to go about looking up the stamped numbers.

I did the smart thing and looked up casting on the intake... makes more sense right. Turns out to be a 340-4 intake from a 73. Thanks again for the help guys.

I was told a block I hot had a purple cam in it. Now that I have it out I don't think it's a purple cam. Can anyone help ID it by stamp/cast numbers? stamped in back is 150062CD on top, the bottom has 69-37-098 stamped on top of 42z63-0? casting is 1136, c1, d1, b8, and a big 03 by distributor...

Thanks krazykuda

It's possible, there is a lot of dirt and mud packed into the numbers. I was scraping at it but some was stuck pretty good.

Okay, I had a 318 given to me. The block is clearly stamped 318, but with a block code that I think reads 2506080. Does this code mean anything or is this the production number? I ask because it has a four barrel intake on it. It's a factory chrysler intake but almost looks to big for the 318...

Honestly I am not sure. When I pull it I will look at the numbers. I'm new to old domestics. I didnt know there were different purple cams.

So my uncle gave me a 318 for letting him store a 440/727 in my garage until he got the body work done on his charger. When I was over picking It up he had a 360 short block on the floor. I asked why it was laying on the floor not covered and he said to look at the first piston. His buddy got...

This is just an idea ive let bounce around my head. It may not happen, i might just get a factory SB k member and the front end pieces and do a blow through turbo set up with the 318/360 head combo.

I thought about using a frame off of a Dakota, but I would rather put spring mounts on the subframe and run the car how it is. I feel it would be cheaper just to put mounts on the car since my uncle can custom make and weld the mounts for me.

I was thinking either a dakota 4wd front end or jeep front axle with dakota or ramcharger driveline.
