i found this cam in my garage. i have no CLUE what it goes to. halp?

i think it goes to a LS1 and searching those numbers havent got me anywhere.

thanks fer yer help!

 

Um.....throw it away. Its laying around in your garage, you don't know what its for and you probably don't know its history. Throw it away.

 

um.... it sat in the corner of my garage in plastic, in a white blank cam box. why not? i still wanna know what it is/was.

 

Interesting. Is there a part number on the box?

 

mmm ill have to look at it again, but im pretty sure no.

 

It is a 02+ LS6 cam. 12565308

 

So you're what.....an archeologist? Sorry I couldn't be more help in identifying it.

 

is it worth anything? or should i just pitch it? i have a LQ4 6.0 that could use it if its worth anything.

 

They seem to sell for $100~$150 all the time. Dealer cost on a new one is around $250. You can get a LS6 spring kit for it for about $60.

 

its not going to make a difference in HP with my LQ4 is it?

 

It should. Lots of truck guys like running the LS6 cam.
