Default custom grind cam not ao custom

I was starting to build the motor up in my 5.3 turbo fox.
I've seen a few people running the ls9 cam in a 5.3 but need a did front cover and some other things I believe?..
Would comp cams or someone custom grind a cam for a 5.3 to ls9 specs? Or could they get in trouble for something. Like this??

the ls9 and ls6 are real similar. by the ls6 pops right in. its also a tad more agressive. @ 117 lsa. around 551 lift.

the ls9 is like a 12x? and around the same lift. i just picked one up with springs,locks,retainers, and its brand new out of a crate ls6 a guy bought for 225 shipped.

they are 334 from gmparts for ls6 vs 116 for ls9. good luck.

Granted the ls9 cam works for people, but if you are spending the money on a cam with ls9 specs, why not get a cam made to better suit your needs?
