Default Cam Identification

I've got the following numbers off the back of an LS1/LS6 cam but have no idea who makes it.

LS1 / 3717 / 3764 HR11 T1793 2870A CC

Can anyone help me identify it?

Thanks

That look like a Comp cam. 3717 is a 228 * @ .050" duration .571" lift @ 1.7 rocker ratio. LS1 XR lobe
I didn't see the other lobe listed in Comps online catalog.
It looks like your missing a number for the lobe separation angle.
It should be HR 11#. HR112= 112 LSA etc.You can check yourself in the online catalog. If you don't find what you need, give them a call or email the numbers off the cam. They can probably identify it for you.

Thanks guys. Those are all of the numbers that were on the cam. I'll do as you suggested and give Comps a call. This cam might be a bit too big based on your information so I want to be sure before comitting to using it. I appreciate your responses.
