This small amount doesn't make any difference.

3016R - XFI intake lobe
3725R - Xtreme Energy XE-R lobe

you are fine that is the right cam...my intake and exhaust lift are the same...it is really hard to cut a cam 100% to the thousandth...

so as of now you got sent the right cam...now you just have to degree it when you put it in to make sure it was cut right...I am sure you will be fine...

also when you degree it, it is acceptable to be within a +/- 1 degree...so it could be a 229 or 231...
