So my custom grind cam got here and I noticed the lift was .623/.627 i was told I was getting .624/.627 will this .001 difference matter and how if so

It won't make any difference. If you have a micrometer, do set it at .001 and see how small that is.

I know how small it is just didn't know the effects of it with valve train and what not I figured it wouldn't matter but just wanted to be certain So since u live around here when I gonna come help me put this thing in lol

I have beer

I don't drink but I do work for pizza. If our schedules can mesh up I'll certainly come help.

Pizza is my wife's favorite thing to order lol we can def do pizza and I want to see your car , u don't by chance have a valve spring comressor do u or a push rod length checker ? I am pretty sure I have access to one but if u had one and things worked out that would be greats

Cams are never spot on. Duration probably isn't spot on either. Their is tolerances on everything.

Ya I figured that was prob the case even though when grinding things I know I can get super close even better then .001 in many cases but I am cool with it looking forward to putting it in soon
