there is only two stampings on there. One says 121 then under it says 00. Then the other stamping just has the letter E. Is this the hotcam?

thanks,

The pics suck, but I hope they help. There is nothing written on top or bottom as you can see in the first two. The only stampings are like I said above.

Thanks,
Matt

You can always send it to Thunder Racing and have them put it on their Cam Doctor. I don't know how much it costs ($50 is a number that pops in to my head), but it'll tell you everything about the cam.

Either that, or degree it yourself with a degree wheel and a dial indicator.

hmm, ok. I'll figure something out. I was hoping someone would know by the stampings, but no one so far. I think I'll take it up to a dealership and see if they have one in stock I can compare it to.

Thanks guys,
Matt
