A site I have booked shows this for 93 cams
GM .450/.450 .480/.460 93 LT1 STOCK

It's 1.5/1.5 and 1.6/1.6. While it doesn't list the lobe for that year, 119 comes to mind but that just can't be right. Who knows though with the lower exhaust lift *shrug*.

EDIT: Come to think of it. I've seen .447/.459 for the 93s as well. That's what I have put into Desktop Dyno. It's a shame there's no way we can find out what it truly is :\

That should answer that.

That doesn't answer squat. There's THREE different specs I've ran into. .447/.459, .450/.450 and .450/.460.

I would trust whats posted on this site, if it was incorrect it would have been corrected by now (especially being in the newbie thread). But thats just me.
