525SC, used the same 228/236 at .050 530/551 lift 114 LSA flat tappet cam, that was used in the 400hp, 420hp, and 425hp mercruiser 454ci engines.

The 900sc's were known to be valvetrain eaters. I wanna say they had something like 714 lift solid rollers. They used conventional rockers, basically old school blown big blocks like alot of us have. Nothing fancy.

Personally, If I was rebuilding a 900sc merc, I would go for a milder camshaft setup .

Im so confused now lol

I think 14 apache or someone recently had some 900sc mercs in their shop, maybe they know the 900sc cam specs, or have a grind number off them?
