Default Help! Cam identification.

Can anyone identify this Cam? Came with the car in a bullet racing cam box but I called them and they said they don't believe it is one of their cams... any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Thats why I don't want it. Comp Cams said it would be great for a carb setup but tricky to tune for EFI

I would expect a car run in CL would end up with S for fuel trims and the top end would be quick high and drop fast. Once you are spewing unused air past the o2 sensors, expect the o2 CL setup to do something about it.
