C43 camshaft details

Anybody know what the technical specifications (lift, overlap, etc.) used in our M113 4.3lt engines?

I have several M113 cam specs, but the C43 cam is different and I don’t have those.

I don’t know how much detail you want but for the 2001/2002 CLK430, the intake centerline is 108, intake duration is 199, at .050 lift it’s 162, valve lift is .356, and lobe lift is .239. Exhaust duration is 227, at .050 lift it’s 184, valve lift is .374, lobe lift is .251 and overlap is 78. As you no doubt guessed, they have 1.49 rockers (intake and exhaust).

Schrick cams

So I have found some cams for our M113 4.3 engine. Check page 10 of the catalogue. I have also attached the full catalogue. I know this company since the early 70's. They make TOP class quality products

However still havn't found any references and specs for the "standard AMG ground cam. Still searching....
