I am rebuilding anold MTC engine with a 900 kit big head rods studs and the cam has 319 numbers on it  The cam is a regrind, possibly done by Ivan Tighe in Brisbane Aust but only guessing, Engine originally built by Barry Taylor of Phase 4 Engineering Next question how do you measure lift and duration of the cam any help appreciated

Hi Topgun, i have seen the 315 on this site somewhere, could be a Russ Collins cam originally and been reground by Ivan Tighe, i had him regrind a RC cam for me a few years back at West End if my memory serves me right....Someone else here will know for sure....

How are you mate

I have an old Ivan Tighe regrind that has "SM369" stamped into the end.

They were able to to give me the opening & closing degrees and lift from their records.
