Hotcam 272/281 218/228 .492/.492 112LSA. You've got 275/278 220/226 .492/.492 111LSA. It's close to a Hotcam, I'm not sure how accurate those cam doctor programs are. Is the cam supposed to be a Hotcam or is it a Hotcam "copy"? Hotcams are billet, so that's usually a good way to define one.

What does it say on the front of the cam. Where the dowel pin and sprocket attach...

According to the data from your cam analyzer it is 219.9/225.5@.050" duration which is damn close to the advertised of the hotcam 218/228. Lobe lift is dead on.
