Hey cool, you have four cams so you should mount two on each head and install 16 more valves, that will make your ls1 rock!!!

Sorry couldn't resist that one . . . I don't know about the numbers but just grab a digital mike from Harbor Frieght and measure them, then you will know what you have.

Oh I was also going to say, if you have access to a lathe and a dial indicator you can easily measure the duration and LSA.
