Default Help me identify this cam please...Numbers etched by hand

Hello,
I just pulled my cam and I wanted to know the specs on it. The cam went bad and messed up the lifters too. I bought the car with the cam in it already and the previous owner didn't know the specs either. It has some hand etchings on the bottom of it that read as follows:

3724R/3726R

HR 114+1

Then it has the letters CC etched which I assume stands for Comp Cams.

Lastly, F6730-05 is etched as well.

Thanks for the help!

Here is a link to Comps master lobe list, in case someone else wants to look one up.

What kind of power would a cam like this put down on a 2001 Corvette Z06 with stock ls6 heads and intake and bolt ons?

I'd expect it to give you about 40-45rwhp at peak over the stock cam. If you search "228/232" in the dyno results section, I'm sure you'll find quite a few threads with graphs!

Matt when we order custom cams and such is the LSA and ICL determined off of those lobe reference numbers or is it something that is determined based on how they cut the cam?

The HR 114+1 is what gave the LSA and ICL. Those aren't determined by the lobe number.

Yeah I realize that. Is that just determined by the way they cut the cam?

Now that I know what cam it is and the specs, I need some help picking out a new one. What would be an upgrade to this cam? I'm looking for something a little bigger but not extreme. I'd like to be in the 420-430 range. I don't want a lift much higher than .600
I was thinking about the tsp 233 239 cam on a 112 lsa. Would that be a good upgrade or should I go with something else? I'm open to all suggestions.

Thanks again,
Adham
