LS6 Cam in LS1?
just looking for some knowledge, tryed a search and saw nothing on it...
How much power do you guys think an 02+ LS6 cam will make in an LS1?
(I think these are based off 1.8 rockers)
Intake lift... (inches)
.324 - LS6 (2002-2004)
.306 - LS6 (2001)
.292 - GTO
.274 - Vette LS1
.268 - Trans Am
Exhaust Lift.... (inches)
.322 - LS6 (2002-2004)
.306 - LS6 (2001)
.292 - GTO
.281 - Vette LS1
.274 - Trans Am

Looks like the LS6 cam would be more streetable and be good for 25+ RWHP... Just figured its something to think about

The LS6 cam is not very agressive. The LS6 engine was rated 405 at the wheels. I don't know what they dynoed in stock form, but my guess is around 370rwhp. The only way that you will get 400rwhp is to go with a more agressive cam than that or heads. Look at my specs in my sig, and that is with a more agressive cam and intake.

I made 376rwhp @ 361rwtq with an LS6 cam on stock 241 heads. All bolt ons, LT's, ORY, ASP, PTB and tune. Drove and idled dead stock. I would have kept it except it had not much midrange improvement over stock until 4000+rpms where it really woke up. It's a topend cam for sure. I swapped it out for a TR224 and never looked back.
