Re: Cam info

Re: Cam info

The advantage of the LS6 cam is that it is a nice upgrade and can be had very cheap. I had one shop offer me one out of a Z06 that they pulled with 1500 miles on it. They were gonna give me the cam and I would just pay labor. Not a bad deal, but for all the trouble and the fact that Cams aren't that pricey (it's the labor that's pricey) I think you could go quite a bit more aggressive than an LS6 cam and have plenty of streetability with much better performance.
