Need help identifying cam - Please!
 

I just purchased some parts for my rebuild and included was a cam, lifters, bearings, etc

the cam is new and is stamped 'Weber' and '520H' on the sprocket end. the box is labelled with a marker FC440HP.

Lifters marked FC472, springs marked VT511.

I've looked in the new web-cam catalog, and no such part no seems to exist. Anyone recognize any of those numbers?

TIA,

Figured it out, FAT part nos, Weber cam no.

Hi Dave,

As far as I know the term WebCam does not refer to Weber camshafts. Weber is or was a manufacturer of a variety of cams for VW Type I engines. I'm not sure if they ever made any cams for VW Type IV engines.
Check out this link for a nice overview of cams for Type I (incl. some of the more common Weber Cams): http://www.phnet.fi/public/hefor1/vwinfoca.htm
You might also want to post your text at the Shop Talk Forum (e.g. type4rum). These guys have a lot of knowledge about tuning parts for VW engines. Someone there might be able to identify your Weber cam...
