INLET CAM T140
Nitrided inlet camshaft for the Triumph 750 unit twin (T140/TR7 family), PN 71-7016.
71-7016 is the inlet camshaft for the Triumph 750 unit twin, the T140 and TR7 family. It's a mechanical part that lives inside the timing chest and controls when the inlet valves open and close as the engine turns over, working off the same cam form as the earlier 71-3555 cam.

This one is built around a nitrided finish, which toughens the surface of the lobes against wear over time. It's typically discussed as part of a matched set alongside the 71-7017 exhaust cam, since the two are ground to work together, though this listing here is for the inlet side on its own.
We don't have a lot of catalog history logged on this particular number beyond that it's cataloged for the 750 twin. If you're rebuilding a top end or chasing a cam-follower or timing gear question, give us a call and we'll work through what else you need alongside it.
