Default 1075 Merc----What Cam?

Curious as to what cam is in the new 850SCI and 1075SCI engines? Hydraulic Roller, Solid Roller? I have searched the merc site and Google and have found nothing on them.

A secret race cam designed by merc especially for their motors. It is rumored they are made entirely of carbon fibre

Steet,
The 1075 SCI cam:
Solid Roller
The lift values are
.395" lobe
.672" valve gross
.642" valve net after lash

The 850 SCI is significantly easier

Smitty said it best. That's why they refer to Bob as "The Cam God"!
