Which push rods are you supposed to use with the LS6 cam? It says they have to be longer than the stock ones on the LS1 but that does not tell me anything..

So which pushrods would I need to order? And I need 16 valve springs right? And with the cam/valve springs/pushrods what else do I need? What's the cost of installation on it? You guys are awesome!

I'd just get the stock length pushrods (7.4"). The hydraulic lifters can soak up the extra space IMO. I'd talk to someone there just to clarify.

Oh and you do need 16 springs. I'd expect to pay around 400 bucks for an install...

Thank you so much for your help

I'll probably order this today. That 2002 Z06 cam will fit my 2001 Camaro Z28? Get the 7.4 push rods and 16 valve springs. Anything else I need? Thanks once again. You've been a great help.

You'll need to buy gaskets also...besides that, your on it brotha! That cam will fit everything fine on your Z28...let us know how it turns out. A guy on LS1.com did this and a lid and put down 352HP to the wheels...

Ok, ordered the Z06 cam, thunder racing 7.400 chrome-molly reenfoced pushrods, and those valve springs from the link. I'm also getting Hooker LT headers for christmas plus trading my extra wheels for a Nitrous Xpress kit. I'll have a fun holidays installing and tuning it all! Looks like it's time to get new spark plugs and fuel injectors while I'm at it. HO HO HO! Merry christmas to all!

I'm trying to reach that magic 400 number not counting N2O. When it's all said and done I'll have a FRA, lid, ported MAF, cut-out, LT headers, pullies, 160 thermastat, Z06 cam, and I think that's it engine wise. I'll tune it on a dyno and hope for the best. I'm not sure if I'll put juice on it though. I don't want to get forged internals yet or a new rear end. I'll keep everyone posted when it's all done.

I bought a wrecked Z06 from a local, ripped it up and sold parts, I kept the heads, cam and intake for me
