Default weird specs on my tsp torquer v.2

So after I installed my cam I was going over all the specs and I came across something strange on the cam card about the specs and was wondering if anyone else has these same specs or was this a typo. Here they are 232/234 .598/.598@112lsa when it should be 232/234 .595/.598@112 I know it's not a huge difference but was just curious cause I hadn't seen these specs before so I checked the cam and it says tv2 112 something to that affect. I'm thinking a typo what's your opinion, not to mention the car is a beast with this cam and happy the way it runs.

Not sure if you are referring to the one lift number being off.....The cams often come out a tad different then expected. For instance, a TR224 I had was actually 225/225. No big deal, its machining variances.

Yep, most cams will be a couple thousandths off on the lift, and occasionally a degree of duration, from the advertised 'shelf' specs. Like the poster above said, machining variances.

My 231/236 .641, 617 ended up being 231/236 .644, .615

Cool, just wondering, didn't know that they came out like that I was under the impression that all were sold to specs. Like the old saying goes you learn something new everyday. Thanks for the quick reply.

232/234 .595/.598@112 are the specs for a Comp XER281HR (54-446-11)?

But yeah I wouldnt worry, machining tolorences and updated profiles can cause the numbers to be slightly off. My Comp XER273HR was supposed to pec .588 on the exhaust and came with .592 on the card.
