Default What cam do I have?

At Dawg's McDonalds car show, I ran into Mark Decker of Expert Auto in Torrington. He is the one that built the engine I have in the 68 Camaro.

I asked him if he remembered what cam he put in it and he said he remembers everything about the engine.

He said:
solid roller lifter
it is a 636 lift Doug Herbert
good for 3000 to 7000 rpm
205 intake 169 exhaust
ported heads
10.4 to 1 compression


Some of my other specs are:
350 CI small block
TH400 trans

I looked at the Doug Herbert cam selector page here: http://www.dougherbert.com/cam_selector.html

but I am having a hard time with the page and getting anything out of it. Does anyone have any idea what this cam is?

edit: The former owner told me a few years ago that it was a 629 cam.
