All the cam cores say CWC on them. CWC cast them and CMC or EPC rough finish’s them. I think EPC has a wider variety of core offerings, I think they have a standard that is the same a CMC Proferall, and a better HC for Pontiac’s. They have P55’s also for other brands, but I have not heard of a P55 used for a Pontiac. I wouldn’t think CMC would source cores from EPC, but these days you never know.
From what I understand even off shore cores can have the CWC logo cast into them.

Thanks Jay. Interesting information. Measured a newer SPC-8 as 0.48" on the nose and 0.53 on the base circle. The old Comp cams cam I have came out at 0.51" on the nose and 0.56" on the base circle.
I have to ask, are the lobes tapered slimmer towards the lobe nose? Because the comp has more lift.
Merry Christmas guys, I always like reading your posts!
