how to tell from stock ls cams and aftermarket ones
no its not in my car the reason i was asking is because i got it from my girlfriend bro and it came out of a built ls head and i just wanted to figure out if it was stock or aftermarket.
The only different i can see is the weight difference.

no he doesn't know what it is cause he bought the motor do to lsv so he just didn't need the head and i tried to look for stamps or something cause my crane has number at the end but this one has nothing i would say its stock but its very light compare to the stock cams. does str make cams cause it has str gear on it.

If you wind up taking anything into a machine shop, I would get them measured for the hell of it. I'd say you'd be able to figure out what they are if you posted up the lift, duration, etc.
i'm no expert on cams, but shouldn't you just be able to get a caliper and measure the lobes to the furthest(fattest) point? the factory duration should be published all over honda-tech if searched.

The lift is the number you're talking about measuring and he'd have to measure the nominal diameter of the cam outside the lift zone and subtract that from the fattest portion of the cam. A ten dollar pair of calipers would do the job.
You can probably get the stock lift numbers from the Crower web site.
