almost have it! I am also going to point out, depending on the vehicle that you are swapping this into, that you are going to need a cable throttlebody and bracket from SLP. you might need the L76 intake manifold. You are going to need the Lingenfelter crossover box if using a computer with 24t reluctor outputs. depending on if it has afm, you will need to change the lifters to an LS7 lifter or something similar. I believe the PV will be sufficient with the chamber size on these cylinder heads, but I wouldnt mill much without first checking for clearance. You will probalby need an F Body oil pan and you will need to tap the block for the knock sensors like on an LS2. also going to need the LS2 cam sprocket, balancer assy, TPS and IAC sensors from your TB, and some assorted harness extensions which you can get from KATECH or caspers or Racetronix... I believe there is a sticky for this as well.. good luck!

thanks for your info there Brad Hutchcraft
the engine is gonna go in a 4 door blazer and i want to keep the 58x reluctor ring.
the drive by wire throttle and pedal I already have.
The electronic pedal is also installed in the blazer.
I really don't want to do any cutting or machining to the heads or the block, looking for parts that'll keep it stock.. is it possible, with the g6x3 cam

I'm doing the same thing you are doing, except my L92 is going into an F-body.
So far this is the crap I'm running:
LS3 hollow stem valves
Patrick G custom grind cam
Comp cams pushrods
Patriot extreme double valve springs
C5R timing chain
Katech Belt tensioner
Lingenfelter reluctor wheel convertor / cam signal converter
LS3 cam timing gear
LS3 front cover
I have the parts to eliminate the timing chain tensioner found in the L92 (which is something Lingenfelter recommended) and return it to an LS1 style setup
L76 Intake
Cable driven TB
Improved Racing oil pan baffle for the F-body oil pan
LS2 style fuel rail
Racetronix Knock Sensor extension harness
I have read that the L92 truck injectors won't work in the L76 intake, but I don't know yet. I'll use those if I can, if not I've got the Katech kit to use my LS1 style injectors.

[QUOTE=gectek;11216135]You do realize that L92 is already all of that stuff you said right? There is no other L92. They only came in trucks. Anyway
I know.
I was Just letting whoever answered my question that it was all stock L92
Stock bottom, stock intake and stock L92 heads. all I wanna know is if its possible to just add the g6x3 cam to a L92 stock engine.
or do I need to add other parts to it like cts-v lifters, springs or so.

Alot of people will recommend using comp lifters or morels on an aggressive aftermarket can, but then again alot of them will say they use the LS7 lifters with not problems. I would not recommend the high rev caddy lifters at this time. You will def need some new valve springs as well as pushrods to boot IMHO.
LS7 lifters - 12499225
Morels - (boxed as lunatis) 579.05 although im sure there are some other vendors that have those cheaper
Comp - 850-16 229.95 (close to the LS7s)
875-16 245.95 (pro magnums)
Pushrods i would recommend manleys...usual size is the 7.400 $100 per set in any increment above 7.400 or below that manley has.
springs - i would go Patriots period. PPC8501 complete kit. $279.50

Can I ask why you won't recomend the High Rev Caddy Lifters?
and the Patriots springs is that the correct part number. PPC8501 I check it out on SDparts and came up with no match.
