I have 2 sheets of specs. The one dated Feb 1969 lists the lift at .467/.473 in one book.The duration is the same. The other sheet in my other book I have is dated the same Feb. 1969 but lists the lower lift . Go with the higher one. Chrysler did some funy things back in that era. Its good that you caught it.
Thanks.
