Default what cam will fit?

Hey everyone,

What cam would fit in a ls1 with stock heads 241's and 1.8 rockers. I do not want to worry about PTV. I know this needs to be checked but there must be a size that always clears. Thanks for anyhelp.

well the ls6 cam has around .550" lift and is compatible with 1.8 rockers.

so figure most cams that are under that lift would work. most are gonna be pretty small cams in terms of duration.

you could sell the 1.8s and put stockers back on...then your choice in cams jumps about 10X

Many cams will fit but your lobe choice will be restricted due to the 1.8 rockers.
What are you trying to achieve? M6/A4? other mods?
Give more info..
