Default Aggressive Cams?

You know after talking to Zack (ZW99GT) We thought maybe my cams were more aggressive than stage 2's. Heres my specs:

Intake is 270 and exhaust is 280

Intake lift is .562 and exhaust is .576

Idk i had them do custom grinds but i thought it was really close to stage 2. Idk what do u guys think?

it's a high lift xe270 for all intents and purposes. Disregard generic stages. Stages are for those that can't match parts by reading specifications. Your cam will need 3.55:1 gears or better, a higher stall tq converter if you're automatic, and a tune (for idle, timing and fuel delivery) to be properly installed. I'd be pretty worried about PTV with that high lift and the long duration. I'm betting you'll have to advance or retard the cam to keep from hitting the slugs.
