Ken at Dave Bean didn't seem to have this information, all he could give me was .420 lift/ 290 duration / 104 Lobe Centers.
I asked if this meant that the cam could be timed to the Lotus specs for the 104 cam
Did Ken give you a direct answer to your question?

If not, the answer is, "Yes". Speaking "American-English", in a single-cam Detroit push-rod V8, "Lobe Centers" is the same thing as speaking Brit-English and saying "MOP" (Maximum Opening Point). So timing the DB3-104 cam to 104 "Lobe Centers" is the same as timing the Lotus 107 or 104 cams to 104 "MOP". Use the Lotus Green-dot, 104 MOP pulleys.
