TSP Giant Cam, PP LS6 Heads and stock SB I have seen on other website that larger cams like the T-Rex were used on stock head motors. I would like to know if the Giant Cam can be used with Patriot Performance Stage 2 LS6 unmilled heads, and a stock 2001 short block. Will there be issues of the valves hitting the pistons? This would be a N/A setup.

I actually talked to tsp about the very same question and they said that thie biggest cam they would recommend for a stock bottom end would be the ms4. anything bigger will be breaking alot of parts.

I don't know why I put geometry. Lol. I meant valve events. Depending on your heads you are going to want to double check before you bend some pushrods and eyelash some pistons. Clearances are everything when it comes down to the big cam questions.

Any advice that you get over the internet take with a grain of salt.
Except for this:
Always double check for your own peace of mind to be sure that everything will fit properly. And just because it fits doesnt neccesarily mean that it is any better. You might want to make sure that this cam is going to be the route that you are wanting to take.

Either aftermarket pistons or flycutting would be needed.
That is actually the cam I am running in my 402.
