Default Do these look like Skunk2 Stage 2 Cams???

Hello,
Didnt take then out because i didnt know the order to take out the caps/bolts...
But do these cams look like Skunk2 Stage 2 Cams???



Honestly, they dont look like 12.3 mm lift on the VTEC lobe..doesnt look like much duration either....
Could it be that this guy scamed my *** with some GSR cams?
I also have Titanium Retainers in my B16 head but they look really shiny even when covered with oil but those are suppose to be an upgraded valvetrain..are those stock retainers..?
Thanks for any help,

Gotta remember also,12.3mmlift is not gonna actually be a 12.3 mm lobe height.If i remember correctly,the rocker arm ratio is about 1.55 or so.Thatwould make a cam with a 12.3 mm lift have a 7.93 mm lobe height.Which would be .311 inches of lobe height.

Hard to tell on the cams so I won't say anything but the retainers look totally stock to me. Every manufacturer of Ti retainers makes the top unique, Portflow makes theres like a dish, Skunk2 have a groove going around the radious of the reteiner. I have S2 retainers and they look like they were chromed even after 5k.

DuDe... those are SO not GSR cams... those lobes are large. but those are lookin like stock retainers... the only way you will know with the coloration is to clean them. stock ones are gold in color through the metal. the ti could be stained. I know the portflows are flat like that.
