Hi Hal,
To determine the lift you subtract the side to side measurement from the height of the lobe. I can save you the trouble and tell you the lift is .150". The average lift on the NE camshaft [not all are the same] is .185" ~ .186". In other words the NE lift is approx. .035" ~ .036" higher than the WC-1 camshaft. Is the lift the most important factor concerning low in torque? No it isn't, in fact the low end torque is more controlled by the opening and closing numbers of the intake and exhaust valves, and the "lobe centers". The camshaft profile also effects the torque curve and RPM level. An example is a camshaft profile called "box car". The "box car" profile has steep lobes [open valve quickly], goes flat on the top of the lobe and then travels down the opossite steep lobe [closes the valve quickly]. The "box car" is noted for a higher torque curve, and is a strong racing camshaft for 4 stroke single motors.
So as you can see lift is often the smallest factor when looking for more bottom end. The vintage "H", "J", "300", "500", "600", & "700" had far more torque than the NE motor. For the record the WC-1 is almost identical to the "vintage" camshafts.
Hope this information is helpful,
Have fun,
