The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Engine Shop Erson 235 camshaft ID

Been going thru my NOS 235 hot rod engine parts and found a camshaft kit springs lifters push rods. the cam paper had faded out and is unreadable. It is a Sig Erson 110515 290F. If i my memory is correct it is 515 lift 290 duration ??. I also have a new set of jahns 60 over dome pistons and a harper 3x2 manifold. Might build another 235 as i have a good block and a few 848 heads left.

I called Erson , 458 lift 292 duration, 242 duration at 50, 110 lobe .

That's a nice "forgotten" find. Stuff I come across in my garage is usually not that good.

I built several of those old engines back in the 70's and have a few good parts still laying around still might build another or just let someone else enjoy them.

I parked my 1950 chevy fastback in 1979 due to farming and a business that took all of my time.we brought it from the farm a couple of years ago and put it up inside. Last week i put a new fuel tank in fuel lines brakes ect and got it going this week, i might try to post a video on you tube of it running. It was over .060 deck and head milled timing gears relieved, 59 deg curve in the ignition 2 large one barrels on an offy , full length tuned headers and a cam almost identical to the Sig. It ran better than anyone expected with a 3.73 rear gear and a Muncie rock crusher.

Here is a short video of it running.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWg6ltSmeK8
