Authentic BC cams or fake? - SRT Forums

I recently picked up a set of Brian Crower Stage 2 cams off of ebay. The box I got is the original box with packaging but when I open the cams something seems off. They don't look 100% brand new, but they also dont look like they were used at all. Are there any markings on BC cams so I can identify that these are authentic and that I didnt get stock cams? There are some markings on it, but nothing with the BC name or part number. In fact in the one end there is a 052743 on the top and 679AA on the bottom, so if you put at that together it may be a Chrysler part number, Idk. Any suggestions? I just wanna know if I got ripped off and even more so not go through all the work and not put in the cams I want. Thanks

I would've sworn my BC3's had a little BC on the ends

I have my Stage 2 BC cams and they are stamped on the ends. (BC0161-EX or IN) If you don't see this stamp, then I'm sorry to say you might have just been ripped off. Good Luck!!

I recalled reading that somebody had BC do a bunch of regrinds at one point?

I indeed got ripped off

I didn't think there was anyway BC would not put at least his part number on his cams. I called and talked to him and he confirmed he puts the part number on the end and the BC logo on a part of the casting. These have neither one of those. I just opened a paypal claim to try and get my money back, we'll see how these go.

However, while I was talking to BC on the phone I told him what happened. He confirmed they were not a set of his cams. Even though it was not his fault at all he gave me a GREAT price on a set of new ones from him. Great guy and great customer service. Now I know why everyone told me to buy his cams.

Glad to see that you got a great deal from BC. And you're right, Brian is a great guy and there customer service is excellent. Hope the claim works out in your favor.
