how do you determine lobe base circle?

Just wondered if there is some way to determine intake and exhaust base circle without a cam card. The only information I have is .602/.602 236/236 112+2

You measure it with a mic or calipers.

I really didn't want to remove the cam to measure it. Is there another way?

The specs look like Comp XER lobes. Call Comp Cams tech. You could try and PM Unaffiliated Racing. He works for Comp, but he hasn't been on the board here in about a month. I'll PM you his contact info.
