Ok, so I can say that with all the engines i have ever built, I have never reused a camshaft, that was the reason I had to rebuild a few.
So i have a very stock 75 318 with what I believe us the original cam.
I also have on the other corner a 74 318 that i have reason to believe the cam is aftermarket and probably a more desirable performance unit but the block is trashed.
1. How do I identify a camshaft to find out the technical specs
2. If the one out of the 74 is something good, how do I recondition it for further use, the lobes look strong but there is a little discoloration and Mark's from the lifters but not bad.
3. How do I identify which are the proper new lifters to order
4. How do I know if the stock spring's are right to use.
These are my "acting brand new here" questions for the day.
Thanks
