After 03 ls6 cam install Hi, I'm a newbie with all this so please help me with any info!
I want to put a 03 ls6 cam and springs into my 98 ls1 TA M6 using my stock heads. What size pushrods and what's the cheapest tuning that I could use with this setup? Can I use the stock 03 ls6 pushrods? Is there a different in length? Or,Can I use this pushrods that I bought from trickflow which I think it's 7.400 in length? And Can I use my stock 98 fuel system and
Will this handle it? Also, will this pass my strict CA smog? Any info will be very greatful

use the 7.400 pushrods. you're not changing compression, you're not changing the base circle of the cam. you probably don't even need to tune it much, any basic tune would cover it. you'll probably get a 15 MAYBE 20 horsepower gain if it's tuned well. the cam isn't that much of a step-up, and you will easily be able to use your stock fuel system.

are you doing the work yourself? if not, don't waste your time. you'll need new pushrods because the base circle or someting along those lines is smaller on the zo6. you'll need a tune to take full advantage because the cam peaks somewhere around 6200, and thats the stock rev limiter. zo6 cma can go to 6500-6600.
if your gonan spend the money, get somethng better. tunder racing cheatr cam, tsp has a few good ones, gmpp asa cam.

Stock tuning, pushrods and fuel system will work fine no problem with that cam. CA emission testing should be fine as well. I ran the same cam in my 98 years ago like that with no problem. I do recommend bumping up the rev limiter and shift points.
