What Cam Do I Have???? 01 C5 LS6. Been trying to figure out what my cam is for some time now. I got some numbers off the cam when swapping valley covers, it has "33:4.1", "33", and "33x". I also found some specs written on a sheet of paper when I got my car in 05 which are just "1.19" and "2.40", but nothing telling me what they are or any other specs. The cam cannot be newer than a 2004(and it may be a Mallett spec cam, and would have been done around 2002-2003), but I can't seem to find more info on it and Mallett can't find any more receipts in their archives than I already have. Can anyone help? Thanks

I don't really have any other info, just the numbers and the approximate build date. I was hoping someone knew the markings on the cam who could point me to a manufacturer who I could contact to get the complete spec sheet.

Most cam grinders will stencil/etch a part number on the back end of the cam. If there are no numbers there my guess would be a GM cam, such as LS6, ASA, or the Hot Cam. The best way to tell what it is would be to bring the cam to a shop with a Cam Doctor to have it measured.
