hc-03a is an HO Racing cam, not a factory grind.
Ken Crocie hangs around here and may see this post or you could go to his website and contact him through that as he would be able to provide the specs if no one here knows what they are offhand. http://www.hoenterprises.com

Interesting. I knew he ground different versions of the HC03, but I thought they were labeled with the letter suffixes. Thus, the verion you have being the "a" version, then a "b" version, a "c" version, and so on for each different variation. But, what do I know. If Ken says he can't tell for sure from those numbers, he would certainly know best.
You still have options. First option is to take the cam to a cam grinder if there's one near you, or ship it off to someone. They will be able to determine the specs. Second option is determine the specs yourself with a degree wheel and dial indicator if you just happen to have a long or shortblock laying around you could install it in.

I run the HC-03 in the '71 455 HO engine that I have in my '64 GTO. Pretty big cam for a street car.
244/252 @ 050, .500/.504 lift with 1.5:1 rockers, I use 1.65:1 rockers for .550/.554 lift. The HC-03A is just an updated version, I'm sure the specs aren't really all that different.

Huh? Only one #13 casting. Used in '70 on HO/RA 400s with auto trans mostly. Not on 350s. No big-valve heads were used on 350s 'til '75.

Okay, you caught me, I forgot about that one. The only exception to the rule I'm aware of though.
