There were 2 versions of the ls6 cam the original 385hp 01 Z06 and the 405hp 02+ Z06 cam.

The Caddy's got the 02+ version.

An 04 GTO uses a 04 Corvette cam, the LS2 6.0 uses a 01 z06 cam.

doesnt sound like its a real ls6 cam. go onto gmpartsdirect and get one from there if you want one. itll be new and for sure an ls6 cam. ive heard of so many better ones tho, and lots of vendors on this site sell some awesome ones.

So currently you have a 220/230 cam w/ .440/.475 lift?

In My Opinion based on your current Combo i would recommend a 223/228 63X/63X 116+0. Makes great power through the RPM Range.

We had This cam in a CTS-V with AFR 205's and made 440whp idles like stock.
The limiting factor in your cam Selection is going to be your 2500 stall. If you want to go with a larger stall like a 3000-3300 stall you could go with a 231/234 cam and still have great drivability.

Both These cams are going to require a set of Dual Springs, and no need to worry about PTV clearances.
