Trying to ID the cam in my 221, It has F5 and T3 stamped in the dist drive, Does anybody have information, Its seem pretty lumpy.
 
The 5T cam was the standard Ford cam in most flatheads from the early 30's to 48. Their were some differences but only a cam grinder like Pete or others would know What they were. Yes the Flathead does have a nice idle, especially when you pull the choke out alittle.
 
Thanks Ron, but the stamping is F5 and T3, I did a little research and found that Weber used the letter F in their number designation, F1 thru F7

I think I have a list of all the Webber flathead cams in my shop, I'll try to get out there today and check. Walt
 
I doubt it's a Weber cam, but would really need to see a picture of the snout.

From the old Weber cams I've seen over the years, they would stamp the snout with one of two stampings; one was a Weber written out in a pretty cool script and the other was a block letter WEBER. The grind number was then stamped underneath.

Anything is possible, but try to post some pictures if you can.

Here is what I found. This is for a Weber F5S:

-Weber F5 S cam, duration: intake.265,exhaust.260, Lift: intake .340 exhaust.342.
