One ring & 1/2" lobes was the 510 cam as fitted to the 1275 S from engine no. 9F-SA-Y/40006. Sorry I can't help with the other marking, the problem with identifying camshafts is that in the past many were re-profiled.

It was in my July 64 1071, built in the late 70's. Never ran.. Flat top pistons and a ported 163 head, could have been good!! Thanks

I always find this old document useful, may be of interest to others. I'm afraid it's rather faded & doesn't reproduce too well

Turns out this is a 288 cam.. Maybe too much for a street beast
