Default Cam grind question

Okay I pulled a cam from a short block and all I have is a couple numbers. The motor was shot when we got the car but the cam is good. Previous owner knew nothing about it so we are lost. Here are the numbers on the cam:

54-42411
UR0048-06

I don't have a clue where to start but hopefully on here can help us out. The motor had a fully ported set of 243's with 2.08 valves and stuff so I assume this is a descent sized cam. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

I have googled the numbers, checked TSP's site, and tried with Comp. I don't know where else to look. Anyone have an idea where I should start?

comp 212 218 with around 525 and theres another with around 560 lift. baby cam, perhaps better suited for a truck especially a 4x4. heads on the other hand sound great and with a bigger cam and an ls6 or fast intake should be able to get most out of them. good luck with your project....rob

it is the same number - a -.look at 54-408-11 or 54-455-11 for great torque to move a 3400+ ls car.

Well it was pulled from a blown motor that was replaced with a 6.0. My brother owns it and he's using the heads for a ls1 going into his 70 SS Nova so he is going to go with a larger cam for sure. Car had a sbc before and ran 11s and was capable of a DD but with 4.56s and full manual reverse TH400, it was pulled and sold. Making into more of a cruiser now but I feel it will run stronger now with the LS1 than with the destroked 400 that was in it. The cam will be sold now but we were just curious of what it was. I feel he is going to find the cage rule to be in effect with this build lol. Fully built 12 bolt so no worries of blowing the rear. Should be a fun car to drive

11.49 for a roll bar.a ls1 car set up right with 425 rwhp will run that.
