Thumbs up Camshaft question

I removed this cam from a 468 bbc. Letters & Numbers stamped on one end are 9D9J2A 139556. Can any of you wizzards ID this Camshaft? as in brand . I ran the numbers with different manufactures I know about and got a no go. Any help is appreciated. it is a solid lift.

Thanks Larry

Re: Camshaft question

I got nothing! Take some measurements of the lobe. Measure across the lobe to get the base circle, then measure the lobe height. Take the difference and that is the lobe height. Multiply by 1.7 and you get the valve lift. Give you some idea of the size of the cam.
