Any idea what 'LA' hydraulic flat tappet purple shaft cam this is based on the numbers. I don't have a spare block laying around to check it.
What cam is this?

Did they ever grind camshafts for Mopar Performance?? It's a purple shaft hydraulic FT cam. That's all I know at this point.

Any other ideas? Google is showing Nada. I'm wondering if a couple v-blocks and a dial indicator are in order. With dial calipers, the lobes measure about .311" high, which gives about .466" lift, so with some margain for error, somewhere between .450 and .480 is probably about right lift wise.

Thanks for the heads up. It sounds like I'm going to have to wait til I have a bare block on hand to map out the cam. No biggie.
Just curious, why does it have to be a MP cam?

I'd never heard of other cam grinder using purple-colored shafts. I could be wrong I suppose. Shoot, I hope I am at this point. LOL
Crane used purple also. And there maybe more......

Oh wow. Good to know. Thanks! The previous owner made mention that he used a MP purple shaft cam, but at this point, I'm not assuming anything.
