I bought a roller cam cheap, seller told me it is a Comp Cams with around .520 lift.
The only markings I can find on the cam are "2325C6" or it could be "232506"
And a couple of etched marks, one shows ".112" and the other shows "HP51"
Those are no other markings on the cam.

I tried to identify it through comp cams but it is not listed under grind or part #
I need help identifying this cam, there's got to be someone with experience who knows what it is.
Here are some pictures...

Well, I don't think it's a Comp cam. Doesn't most of their stuff start with CCA in the #? Mike

I believe it would be marked something like "35-302-8" or actually 281HR if it were a newer comp cams.

I've got no idea what it is, was hoping someone with more experience could help identify it.

The number stamped in the end is just the "core" number, there is no grind info truly visible. It doesn't have the typical COMP grind info...

Easiest thing to do is slap it in a block with a degree wheel, get all the info you want....

Why would you buy a cam without knowing what it was? It's kind of important, in the big scheme of things lift isn't really the only thing to look at.

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?

^^^ what he said. The added expense of a new cam is worth knowing you have what you want.

Rick 91GT should get the award for the most helpful answer. The OP may need help with doing this, but it may be the best way to really know what is going on. As far as why buy it, CHEAP can over ride good judgement.
