I just purchased a fresh short block from my Snap-On guy of all people. he did'nt know to much about it but it is a 69 - 75 block casting, bored 60 over. It has a cam installed but I have no idea what it is. The only #'s on the thing are 942 336. If anyone knows what this cam is I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again for the help, you guys are the best!

The odds are extremely good that this short block has a stock '71-'80 cam in it (244° - 244° - 26° - 0.414"), since that is the only type that's been generally sold as a stock replacement cam for '60-'80 slant-6s for many years now.

Yes, any Mopar Performance (Direct Connection or what ever they now call the after market Mopar performance part group) cams were painted purple.
