"With regards to a SBC engine,

"With regards to a SBC engine, does left hand rotation also mean it has a different cam P/N? I can't seem to find any cam choices for a left hand rotating engine. Are they all the same? I've checked Comp Cams, Crane etc..

Thanks

"Kelvin,

Lefthand or CCW rotation is standard. A righthand, or clockwise rotation engine is reverse rotation.

In a standard SBC the cam turns the same direction as the crank. Reverse rotation engines have been built with both a standard rotating camshaft (chain driven) and a reverse rotation camshaft (gear driven)."
