I am pretty sure there is a aftermarket cam in my car how do i check the specs on it with it still in the car?

I believe there is a tool to measure lift at the rocker.

But, I'm not sure on this one though, I think you have to take the front cover and use a degree wheel to determine the duration for the cam.

Does anyone have a pic of under the valve covers with all stock stuff...
I would think if it had a bigger cam they would have upgraded the RR and springs RIGHT?

You will need a degreeing kit to measure the lift and identify the cam. Why do you think you are camming?

Remove the drivers side valve cover, 4 10mm bolts and 5 minutes. No RR usually = no cam.
