E: Engine Big Sid Meteor and Andrews cam

[CoreyL]

I noticed today that on the idler gear plate on my Series B Meteor has a hard-to-see inscription that says: "Big Sid 1/16/95". Don't know why I didn't notice it sooner.

I also noticed that the cam say "ANDREWS". Does that reveal anything about the type of cam it is or did Andrews make multiple flavors?

Andrews made Mk 2 and Mk 3 type cams. They did make a low overlap set for Ron Vane’s turbo Thing, but I think it was a one-off. Megacycle acquired the design.
