340 build

Ok so Craigslist strikes again, as some of you may know ( and just to keep short ) I recently acquired a 340.

I took wise advise and didnt even try to get it going as it sat, instead I took it out this A.M and tore it down to see whats what.

I have never seen a camshaft in such bad shape, at least one lobe is almost nonexistent.

Whatever, its still a 340, the cylinders look ok/decent ( Im gonna have them honed, its already .060 over ) and I do believe that it was just recently rebuilt as the seller stated. I dont know what happened with cam other than maybe a bad startup.

I have alot of questions. Can someone tell me what this engine may have originally come out of by the numbers on the block? Im curious
