Default Was the stock Fbody 98-00 cam "bigger/better" than 01-02??

I'm getting a lot of conflicting info. I have seen the 98-00 specs at:

202/210 int/exh @ 0.05" duration
0.496" / 0.496" int/exh lift
116 LSA

But I have also seen this for 98-00:

198/209 int/exh @ 0.05" duration
0.500" / 0.500" int/exh lift
119.5 LSA

Whereas for the 01/02 I have fairly consistently seen:

197/207 int/exh @ 0.05" duration
0.467" / 0.479" int/exh lift
116 LSA

Which of the first two 98-00 specs is correct and is it a "bigger/better" cam than the 01-02?

Yes it was bigger, and no it won't really make a difference.

Just need something to "hold us over" on a L33 5.3L swap into an RX7. Really don't feel like keeping the truck cam in there. Do you know which of the two 98-00 specs I posted above is correct? I've seen i both ways...

1998 - 2000 Fbody
202/210 int/exh @ 0.05" duration
0.496" / 0.496" int/exh lift
116 LSA

Those should be the correct numbers.
