Im pretty sure he is asking if you can put a 09+ CTS-V (engine = LSA) cam in his LS1. Sorry, i can only decipher your question, but dont have an actual answer for you. However, I believe the LSA cam is a single bolt (but i could be wrong), your LS1 has a 3 bolt cam. Why not just get a blower cam designed for the ls1?

it's not a budjet cam ,when you have to change your front cover, sensor ect to make it work.
just put a zo6 cam in it.

the lsa cam is a turd. we throw them in the trash can. at least do a ls9 cam. Dont even bother with these cams without running ls3 style heads. truely a proper camshaft for $400 is well worth the money.

I agree with these guys even with the pennies saved, by the time you convert everything youll have more in it then a custom spec'd cam just for you for around $425. if thats still outa the budget go with a used ls6 cam for around 200ish
