Because this is more of a engine question ... than a general tech question, as Moderator I am going to move this to the engine area where hopefully some members with engine experience can answer your question.

Ertel (Canada) engine parts (rebuild kits) are out of Toronto.
I believe the company is owned by Hastings.
The cam is in all likelyhood a stock replacement copy as these came in their engine kits. measure the lobe lift by measuring the major and minor diameter of the cam lobe, using a dial caliper or mic. The difference is the lobe lift. X 1.5 is the valve lift.

Most likely .390"intake .410"exhaust valve lift copy of the "929" stock GM V8 cam used in stock base 327's and 350's
If the lift checks out, the .050" duration is 195°-202° 112LSA
If not, then you can likley find the specs by comparing your lift measurments against this listings of various OEM stock, stock performance and popular replacement cams.
