Use the search function. If I remember right it's something like 207/213 duration 420/430 lift

This is from the GM performance parts catalog
14093643 Hydraulic Roller Tappet
This hydraulic roller tappet is used on the 87 350ci Corvette and IROC-Z Camaro. The duration at lash point in degrees (intake/exhaust) is 294/294; duration at .050" tappet lift (intake/exhaust) is 202/206; and maximum lift with 1.5:1 rocker ratio (intake/exhaust) is 403/415. Valve lash is zero/zero and lobe centerline is 115 degrees.

Re: L98 camshaft specs (flyersfan1088)
From what I remember, the gross numbers were the same when they introduced the roller cam, most of the gains were made in the reduction of friction, However that said, the roller cam profile looked completely different from the flat tappet cam, with the ususal more rounded "roller" cam lobe profile being quite obvious. Its funny that the HP gains were so small. :(
