Any Dyno mumbers with a Cam? For those of you who have done cam swaps, have you gotten any dyno numbers? What cam did you go with? If anyone would rather go through PMs just let me know. I'm doing a cam this month or next and would really like some info.

I went with a newer 02+ ls6 cam.
02+ LS6 cam
204/218 int/exh @ 0.05" duration
0.551" / 0.547" int/exh lift
117 LSA
I dynoed after a stage 2 intake and stage 2 heads so my numbers were not entirely from the cam. Apparently we cant gain with a cam unless we go with a new intake. But anyway, Without knowing whether i lost power from the heads or messed the geometry up by using 1.8 rockers, i would say go with a much more aggressive cam.
If you are not going to keep DOD i would say something a lot more aggressive would be good considering the ls6 ran like stock without a tune. Also if you put a large cam in it and it doesn't idle it can prolly be tuned to idle well so thats not a big deal.
If i could do it again i would go much more aggressive.
