What are the cam specs on 07 C6?

Ran a search but didn't find any mention of cams specs for the new C6s. Anybody know what they are?

Aric, I was guessing on the .525 from memory from several years ago. If it is .525 then with the 1.85 rockers the new lift would be .571. Not sure about the duration either.

Rockers is really not the right way to get more performance in my opinion. You can get a lot more hp with a cam and maybe even cost less.

I agree if your doing the cam install yourself, like you or I would. Some of the labor rates I've seen lately for a cam install was outragous!!! BTW on N/A cars with the 1.85's are in the 12-15 rwhp range, power adder cars are seeing close to 20 rwhp! That's not bad for a rocker arm change. The lousy part in the rockers are $ 600.

To be honest though, the gains haven't shown up at the track either due to lack of traction on street tires or the gains weren't quite as much as the dyno numbers indicate. Though the not so accurate SOTP did feel like there were gains, especially mid range.
