Default Measured Lunati Mystery cam

This cam was in a 2010 Camaro with a Huron single turbo setup.
Due to an accident on the dyno, two bent rods, I ended up buying the short block and ended up with this cam.
had a nice crackle at idle, and made good power for a low boost setup.
Lunati #'s are hard to decipher and their web site is no help, so I measured it.

Set it up dot to dot in the same LS3 it came out of. I am finally assembling it, so just had #1 Rod/piston in.

I've degreed many cams in my day, but have never gone through the measuring process.

Lift is .588 int .598 exh

At .050"

Intake Open 5 ATDC
Intake Close 46 ABDC

Exh Open 43 BBDC
Exh Close 2 ATDC

ICL 116
ECL 110

So found an online cam timing calculator and it spit out this:

Intake Duration 221
Exhaust Duration 225
Lobe Sep 113
ICL 115.5
Overlap -3

So, it's smallish, not tiny.

BTW, I couldn't match this up with any of the cams in Lunati's lineup. Sadly they don't have a single page cam listing. had to go look at every cam one at a time.

Thoughts?

Lunati Camshaft Catalog - this seems to have a pretty detailed list of Lunati cams. Might be worth a look or not.


Maybe is a custom tweaked Lunati cam based on their "Little. Voodoo Cam that Could" a 219/223 Duration at .050". 112 Degree Lobe Separation Angle. 0.625"/0.625" Valve Lift

I didn’t find that catalog online. I’ll check it out. Thanks.
I don’t plan to use this cam, but would be nice to know Power range etc.

A guy could go cross-eyed looking at that catalog!
At any rate, it looks to be a decent little cam that I'm sure one of my LS buddies can use.
Will need good springs though.
