An LS1 camshaft will not work in an LT1 motor, sorry. You need an LT1-specific grind.

Re: Z06 cam?

2001 is first year for a Z06 I believe. They had LS6 engines, which is nothing like an LT1/LT4. LT1 Corvette camshafts were the same as the camaro's. The LT4 camshaft is so close to the LT1 it is not worth it to swap, the LT4 "hotcam" is different though. The hotcam is bigger and has more duration.
