Help determining 340 cam
Okay guys, be kind.... I'm new to engine building/tear down :)
I recently picked up a 340 long block with 10:1 compression and I'm trying to figure out the camshaft to determine what torque converter to run... Before I purchase a dial indicator or remove the timing chain cover to determine the markings I was hoping someone might be able to shed some light on the manufacturer of the cam based on these details:
Engine was assembled about 15 years ago.
Solider lifters
Roller rockers
The gear that makes contact with the helical gear is yellow. (Sorry I don't know what this gear is called on the camshaft)
This might not be enough to go off of, but I know identifying cams in engines can be a little tricky sometime. Previous owner did not know the cam and I'm hoping to find out so I can at least set the valve lash correctly.
Here's a few pictures of the engine if that helps as well.
