watch out. I bought a supposed set of SE203 cams on Ebay once and they guy sent me stock cams. They were even sent in the SE box. Had to file an Ebay claim to get my money back.

+1 on the markings. I believe itll say SE255 though. Either way itll have a number on it whereas the stockers just have a few engraved dashes with no numbers.

I just purchased a used pair from a gentleman on this forum. They have CVO 255 stamped on their ends.

Mine are also stamped with "CVO 255" on the ends. The stock cams have nothing on the ends but have two part numbers stamped in the center section.

Nothing yet. I just got to wondering how I could be sure, if I were to buy off say E-bay. Plenty of crooks there.

You see that crap on EBAY all the time. Some one buys something a a yard sale and then tries to sell it on EBAY.
