Default Evo Cam Question

I have this cam that came out of the '84 FXR that I bought recently....Anyone seen one of these before?
Any info would be appreciated.

it looks to be a street grind - not big in lift and 240 maybe 250 duration - my guess its like a crane 310 2 b or a andrews 27 - type grind - my guess more info on it you just have to look around front and back as well as sides of things

I've gotta ask why would you buy a used cam that you didn't know what it was?

I think he just bought the bike and that is the cam he took out of it.

Yes, it was in the motor when I bought the bike a couple of weeks ago.
When I had my shop I never used Crane Cams and when I took this cam out I had no idea what the numbers meant.
Someone on another site identified it as a Crane Cam earlier today.

I don't know yet whether I'll use this cam or replace it with something a little more aggressive.

A Wood 6 set at 9.8-10.0 cr in those, is always a home run.

You've got me thinkin'.....The motor has Edelbrock heads on it as well and I have ridden a couple of bikes with these heads on them but have never messed with the setup on one.

It'll be fun to see what I can get out of it.
