thanks for the reply,but I think this is an aftermarket cam. there is no u or a but there is a 1-6 . this is a new never run cam in an engine I bought from someone that bought it from someone that bought it from someone and I can't find any answers.Ithink I will probably end up digging out the dail indicator and degree wheel.
