From what I’ve found I need to multiply lobe lift by the rocker ratio to determine valve lift. Thanks for replies.

This is what 'Tony' had to say!
"The cam grinders say the rocker arm ratio on 235's and GMC's is 1.5.But it's 1.4 ,I've checked them out.So right out of the box,you're shy some lift and duration"
Thanks Tony.

The .110” improvement in valve lift with my new 261 cam over the old one should perk it up a little. Although gutless I’m surprised it ran as good as it did considering lobe height varied as much as .030”
