Same IVO/EVC/Overlap if you add 4 degrees exhaust duration to their Stage 2 LS7. Nuttin' fancy with those numbers when you look at it that way! lol

I'd just pull the trigger with them - you'll be very happy with it.

I already have this cam laying around 236/248 .634”/.634” 117 LSA +3 advance.
How would this compare with the one they spec'd for me?
Given your OP and follow up posts, I would advise you to go with the cam motion cam rather than to use the one laying around.
Say for example, you decide to use the one laying around, because you can always swap it out if you don't like it. Fluids, gaskets, and potentially pushrods can end up more expensive than the cam

TBH, if I had that cam laying around, I'd just use it and get the car running. If you don't like it, order the cam motion cam, which will be milder. There are hundreds or even thousands of possible combinations, and you can really twist yourself into a know. In the mean time, you're not enjoying the car. Just get it running.
My gut feeling is that you will end up ordering the cam motion 232/242
