Post #5 Markings are on the non pulley end, have a look on Piper, Newman, Cat and Kent cams websites for the gti-6 cams, as they are the usual manufacturers, see if the markings match any of there model numbers. Only other way to tell is to measure the duration and lift and see if they match anything. ________________________________________ Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 1 Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 2 Lap of the 'ring
