    Yes, look on the side of both cams, where the dizzy hooks into. The colt cam should have some engravings on there. Like CC or something. Hope that helps.

    you can't really see it, unless you know what you are looking for.

    When I got my cam (openloop), I saw the physical difference immediately. Keep looking, you'll notice it.

    Colt cams

    you can see the difference on the lobes, the colt one has the two inlet lobes at different heights.
