LS6 cam good for turbo setup on a LS1
LS6 cam good for turbo setup on a LS1 ok im going turbo and i have a firnd that will give me his LS6 cam, would this be worth it for me to install it?? or should i go with a different cam
Custom grind for application would probably be the "best" way to go. the LS6 cam does work well with FI applications though. Let me move this over to the Forced Induction section for you. You should get some better responses over there.

This may not answer your question specifically but I have the stock cam on my 02 Z06 with the Magcharger and it works well.The wide LSA is desireable for forced induction since it yields a lower cranking compression allowing the use of more boost.You can use the Z06 cam with a 1.85 roller rocker and performance spring to get a litle closer in performance to a custom cam.I have over 80,000 miles of use on this setup.In my opinion the 02 Z06 cam is an 8 on a scale of 1-10 for forced in duction/stock cubes.You can definately do worse.

thanks for moving this Orange, i had too many windows open at once...
ok what im going to do is run a GT67 turbo and im looking to run about 20psi. I have a 4k stall that im going to send to get reflashed to a 3200 stall to help the turbo. currently i have pacesetter LTs, 4k stall, and race built trans. Im on stock internals. Stock heads, and stock cam.
thanks again
oops this is spec_j btw

The Zo6 cam is good but I would think a custom grind cam would be better depending on your setup. If you want to run 20psi you better have forged internals with a really low compression and good heads.
KP has run 9.40s on the ls6 cam. i believe he about maxed it out lol. if you are going to the expensive of a FI setup, cam isnt much to worry about dollar wise.
i would talk to stenod for a FI cam personally.
