Sig Erson Cam Question

Our 1970 442 W-30 has a Sig Erson Cam in it The profile is the old Hi Flow 2H with a part #540541. The cam has only been in the car for break in and with the car in Calif, I am trying to decide if I should keep the cam or replace it once I get it here in Ohio. I don't know much about the cam though.


Is it worth keeping or should I look at changing it out when I refresh the rest of the car?

Hi Flow II is a good replacement cam for the original W30 one, sold a bunch of them. Keep it.

228/235@.050, normally on a 110. The same cam on a 112 is a JB 200 I believe. Lift is .504 on both.

I found the cam card, so here is the information from it.


Valve Lift on both intake and exhaust is .504


Duration on both is 306*


Duration at .050 on both is 235*


Lobe Separation is 108*


Having found the card this am, Is it still worth keeping?

That’s correct. My specs were for a TQ50, my bad.
The one you have should be a strong midrange performer and sound good. Run it.
