The various websites and books we use for reference are all great guides but are of course not 100% accurate.

I have an original Melling catalog (from my old "Carbs, Cams, and More" company days) and it clearly shows the RPC-2 mechanical camshaft as being the correct #10 McKeller grind based on the info printed.

McKellar had factory Grind Numbers like the #8, #10, and #11 (I have never personally seen info on the #12) but those numbers were not stamped on the front of the camshafts like the cams with a letter on them L, P, S, H, and T cams. The cams just mentioned are all Hydraulic camshafts.

No worries at all about it being the correct #10 grind camshaft.

My catalog is from the early 1970s.
