Default Identifying camshaft

I have a used 2000 F-bird (ram-air) engine with 6spd out of a wrecker, I pulled the camshaft out to see what it had. The only numbers on it that make sense are on the end(back of engine)

0965
S(or 5) .13 A
1047

I am assuming its just stock, but the engine had an underdrive pulley, ported oil pump, new timing chain and sprockets as well as this camshaft looks barely used.

Any ideas?

I dont know those numbers, but if you measure your cams base circle, and than lobe lift you will get good idea. Stock cam base circle is 39.50mm most aftermarkets measure around 37.50mm. Stock cams are around .470" or .500" depending on the year . Hope this info helps.
