This cam was in a motor I just bought just wondering if the dates on the back are actually can manufacture dates? And if so please break it down for me. Thank you in advance

I posted this in your other thread as well.

The 3063 refers to the last 4 difits of the factory GM part number. You have an LS3 camshaft.

Thanks. How about the dates

What's so important about the dates?

It would give him a clue as to the mfr. date of the engine it was in.

I bought a supposidily low mileage engine(117) miles and was trying to find out a little more about the truth. That's all. Figured if date was on cam in was either Nov. Last year or 2014.

So, is this a '1 bolt' or '3 bolt' cam?




This page:

pretty clearly says it should be a 1 bolt.

I'm in the process of repairing a lifter failure on mine now.

I ordered the BTR Stage 2 V2, but didn't get the 3-bolt conversion.

When I looked at the block, it looked to have 3 bolt holes surrounding the cam hole. I should have grabbed a photo while I was there today.

Thanks,

ps: sorry to resurrect this, but I didn't think a new thread would be better.

Look at the other end.

kpeters59

Well, I guess I'll have to go back by the shop where it is.

Unless you could just tell me?

Thanks,

No way to tell from the tail end.

kpeters59

No way to tell from the Cam P#?

It looks to be the same one as the OP.

I thought I'd asked BTR to send the Timing Chain kit too, but it wasn't in the box so I need to get it ordered.

The heads are off getting CNC ported so I've got a minute.

Thanks,

My LS3 engine had a single bolt cam in it when I removed it. It's a 2013. Is that definitive? Probably not. But that's my experience.
