I would imagine they are the same as these......I couldn't find anything else

The specs for a 1997-2000 C5 LS1 cam are as follows:
- Intake / Exhaust Duration @ .050" Lift: 202 / 210 Degrees
- Intake / Exhaust Lift: .472" / .479"
- Lobe Separation Angle: 117 Degrees

Actually, the cams on the pre-'01 engines were a little stronger. When the pup cats were done away with in 2001 the cam was made smaller. I think this link will shed some light.

1997-1999 LS1 / Y-car .472/.479 ** duration 199-207 ** LSA 117
2000 LS1 / Y-car .500/.500 ** duration 198-209 ** LSA 115.5
2001-2004 LS1 / Y-car ** .467/.479 ** duration 196-207 ** LSA 116
2001 LS6 / Y-car ** .525/.525 ** duration 204-211 ** LSA 116
2002-2004 / LS6 Y-car ** .551/.555 ** duration 204-217 ** LSA 117.5

For the LS1, the 2000 cam was the strongest of any year.
