Pat,

Just to be sure we are talking about the same cam here is the GM part#14097395 and the specs:


This hydraulic roller design is used on the 383 truck. The duration at lash point in degrees (intake/exhaust) is 288/308; duration at .050" tappet lift (intake/exhaust) is 196/206; and maximum lift with 1.5:1 rocker ratio (intake/exhaust) is 431/451. Valve lash is zero/zero and lobe centerline is 109 degrees.

It is a smooth idle in a 350 with a good torque in the lower RPM ranges.
