Default Cam lift numbers?

It seems like everyone is building bigger and badder motors this year with all the new parts coming out but no one is talking about what cam sizes they are running. So what size cam lifts is in your car:
500 lift range
600 lift range
700 lift range
800 lift range
900 lift range
This information is going to help others when building a nitrous motor.

lift is dictated by the head flow. a 700 in my car will not work with some stock ported heads flowing to 620. atv's 800 lift wouldn't work in my car. etc.

That is a good point, the heads dictate what cam lifts should be. It's still interesting to see what cam lifts people are running. My assumption is, cams are becoming larger as the intake and heads are flowing better numbers. What I'm really interested in, if there are lifts in the 900 range and how common is it. Personally I have not heard of a 900 yet. I know of several 800 cars. With nitrous these cars.............FLY!
