Default L48 Cam Specs

Would someone have the factory specs for a L-48 Cam? IE: duration @ .050", lift, duration, etc. Are they different/same for varying years?
Thanks

As I recall, the .050" figure was 194º intake and (I think) exhaust with .398 gross lift. Definitely a mild cam and not worthy of a Corvette! :)

195/202, .390/.410, 112 LSA.

1000-3200 rpm.

Crane sells a Blueprint version.

It's also known as the 327-300 cam.
