I have a Livernois Stage 3 cam in my current setup and everything is well and good. Drives good and makes great power, but as some of you may know they do not disclose their cam specs like some of the other mfgs. I'm curious if any of you know any specs on the cam. I hate not knowing specifically the amount of lift it has. I'm ocd when it comes to maintenance and would really like to know so I can set my expectations in regards to guide wear/rocker arms. Tried calling them and they wouldnt tell me. Kind of silly to me and annoying. Any info would be greatly appreciated. My mods are as follows FYI.

Specifically the type information (or lack thereof) that would make me not want to buy that cam. To each their own, but I too would want to know the specs on the cam that got stabbed into my LS7.
Do they not give you a cam card with the cam? I am sure that the cam came with a card and since you paid for the cam, I would think that you have a right to the card.
Anyways, I bought the RPM B3 cam and they don't release their specs on their website, but it was at least shipped with the card.
No cam card came with it and I called them and they wouldnt give me the specs. Kind of sucks. the reason I bought it because I knew the power it made and other setups had good results just like the RPM B3 cam does.
According to the following database of cams, the Livernois Stage 3 is - with the caveat that this is from a G8 website, so it's likely based on 1.7:1 rockers, not our 1.8:1:
From their website:
Livernois Motorsports Stage 3 LS-Series camshaft was designed for someone who puts the focus only on power. Recommended for track/street vehicles, it works great with our CNC cylinder heads and produces excellent power. It has a very aggressive, rough idle and ok drivability. Suggested for six-speed manual transmission equipped vehicles or automatic transmission with an aftermarket torque converter.

Um, no. I have a 230/246 .634/.634 116+4 and that is considered a very mild/baby cam (almost identical to a BTR Stage 2). If Livernois advertises that cam as "ok" drivability and focuses only on power, you can bet the specs are much much more than that!!!

I was guessing that these specs are gross values for a 1.7:1 rocker ratio. The LS7 1.8 rocker ratio would put the lift around .648. The LS7 cam could be a totally different piece as the Livernois Website isn't too insightful.

Yes with the power my car is making i can only assume the lift is upwards of .655. I agree their website sucks

Hey Spartan, I'm working out a build with Livernois for my 2008 Z06 that is nearly identical to yours. I'm vacillating between their Stage 2 and Stage 3 cam. How is drivability around town, in parking lot, in stop and go traffic, pulling up to valet or stoplight, and at idle? My car won't see any track time. Its for weekend use and nights on the town with the wife. Also, how load is the exhaust? I was planning to go with the exact same headers, x-pipe, and factory mufflers.
