Don't believe many parts from a LT platform will work in a LSX platform... lol

Understand that. But going from Lt4 to LSX is different generations of engines. What is it going in to? If its not to heavy I say go with a 2003 LS6 or LS7 cam. I've seen them used and in good shape for cheap. LS6 cam swap is good for around a 50 hp jump from stock cam.
