Default Cam....?

I know alot of you would say this is a stupid question but I was thinking about buying a cam from Gude for my sohc its only a d15 1.5l but I got a couple extra bucks and I was wondering what the stock lift and duration is on the 1.5l cam the Gude is....
lift duration
Intake 0.392 .222
Exhaust 0.392 .220

Im not sure if its even worth the time I dont want to do anything too major this just sounds like a fun little project, I might add a turbo later on also, its just a too and from work car with i/h/e, are there anyother companys that make cams for sohc?

holy ****. there is no way the stock valve train will handle the .392 lift and .222 duration.

I'm not sure on what D15 you're referring to, whether being auto or manual tranny as well. I searched, and looked in the Helms manual, but wasn't able to track down the lift/duration you're looking for.

But you'll definitely have to get aftermarket valve spring/retainers for that high of lift/duration.

HTH.
