Question Identifying a '70's cam

I have a D2J1 6250 BA 9UC Cam that I am trying to find information on. Lift, duration, ect. How do I go about doing that. Any help would be great. It is a Marine/Industrial cam. Thanks.

Identifying a '70's cam

i think it is out of a 302 marine engine. i'm not sure though. the J designation in the casting number means it is a Marine/Industrial cam. I am just looking for a way to find out the cam specs. to see how mild the cam is. i could measure lift but the duration for exhaust and intake would be tricky. i have found a few charts on the internet that identify certain cams but none have this one. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

The only way to know with certainty is to measure it, installed. You will need a degree wheel and a dial indicator with a magnetic base. If you will be doing anything with engines, these are good things to have for more than just this. Wheel is under $40.00 and a cheap indicator and base can be had around $75.00.
