^^^^^^


Yep it will but the real question you should ask yourself is is that cam worth the swap?

I have a Futral Cam forsale that would work great on that car.. It's a 232/236-646/612@114LSA

It's a great little street cam.. PM me if your interested. I can let it go for about half what I paid for it plus shipping..
I have about 8,000 miles on the cam and it is like new. I have a whole new setup in my car now with a lot bigger motor and cam so I won't be needing this one anymore.

from what ive seen a 224 cam is just enough so it will not loose any hp/tq to a stock cam, but with a good tuner can easily pass the smog test...i wouldnt remove your cats either! Sell me that z06 cam!!!

You'll want a cam with a minimum of -4* overlap, like a FMS F2, 224/224 114lsa
Other options with at least -4* overlap:
220/220 112lsa,-4*
220/224 113lsa,-4*
EPS TT2, 218/226 113lsa,-4* overlap

not all of it, here in the valley you dont have to smog more than once... ever again...

Theres also other towns or small cities where you only smog it when you first register the car. After that youre pretty much set. You can find a list in the DMV

Form an LLC in Montana and have the car registered in the name of the LLC. There is emissions testing in Montana. You will be driving around with Montana plates, however.
