Will an 05 camshaft out of a GTO fit in an 04 Silverado. I am not sure if the 05 GTO is a LS2 but I am sure that my Silverado is an LS1. I need to find out quick, EBay is cheap.

I think maybe he was trying to say that his engine is in the LS_ family of engines, as almost every every part will interchange, cam, heads ect.
4.8 5.3 5.7 6.0 LS1, LS2, LS6 LS4, LQ4, LQ9, ect, are all the same, except bore/stroke which would make just the block, crank & pistons, really the only 3 major parts that make a difference between the different engines.

The LS1 and LS6 are Gen III engines. The others are considered Gen IV due to bigger stock bore and other minor changes in the block. PCM and such is different as well.
