Cam Numbers
I just got the cam out of my 81. I was wondering if there is a way to tell if its original. The only information on the cam is the "CCS2" stamped on the end with the distributor gear. Then there are a few numbers and letters stamped between the lobes, C1, H, CWC and EP6. I can't find any references in any of the books I have. Thanks in advance. By the way the cam is shot. There are chips on the sides of all the lobes and lots of score marks on the lobes themselves.

OK...I'll give it a shot.
Before #4 bearing you should see "GM" for General motors. After #4 bearing, you should see the part number 3896929. On the opposite side of the GM, you should see the casting number 3896930 and a horizontal diamond.
The #4 bearing is the one before the distributor and oil pump dirive.
