Top - 1940 Reliant Camshaft - Note the different position of the driving gear and the centre bearing area

Middle - Standard Austin Seven Camshaft

Bottom - High Lift Austin Sports Camshaft - Note the roller bearing assembly is replaced by a split bush. The shaft also is larger in diameter in the camshaft gear area. Does anyone know the history of these? Another view of the high lift camshaft
