Default Video clip: could this 2008 have a very mild cam?

Hello,

I just purchased a black 2008 from a dealer in Oklahoma. From what I can see it has AR headers, catted X pipe, NPP mufflers. The salesman said that the work was done a while back by Corvettes of Texas (Xtreme Corvettes of Texas?). He also says he thinks the cam has been replaced. Seems strange, but I kinda notice a cam surge at 60 mph. Maybe it's just me thinking about what he said.

I've done some digging (Carfax and various Vette forums) and can't track down who might've owned it previously.

The video clip is with the dual mode exhaust fuse removed.

Also the car has stickers, presumeably by the Texas shop, on both front fenders/behind the tire. It's a "C" around an "O". In the "O" is an "X". With a "T" inside the "X". I can post a pic of it.


Thanks in advance guys,
Kyle.
