Yes it's possible, and on average people see about 20-25 RWHP. You can probably find a good used one for about $150.00. The one from the 02+ years is the better cam.

It will work but you have to upgrade to at least LS6 springs.

Here is a good thread with a few people who have seen good numbers from this cam and boltons. These are definitely on the high end for dyno numbers but shows what is possible.

Of course it possible but you wont see much HP out of it.

I wouldn't expect more than 15-20 RWHP. You can find them used for under $100. I just sold mine for $75 a few weeks back.

I speak from experience! DO NOT USE LS6 SPRINGS, use PAC1218'S....Dont mean to yell at you but I did the LS6 cam and spring swap and you see some top end power gain from it but there isnt a whole lot. I would use good valve springs with the LS6 cam so when you are bored with the cam and decide to go bigger you wont have to upgrade springs again like I did. Just my .02, but to answer your ? click here http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ls6+cam+in+ls1

If you are putting forth the effort, you might as well go for a real cam. Be it off the shelf or custom specced, it isn't too much more.

I would agree 100% Why spend all that time and put a baby cam in there. There are nice cams that wont take away from DD and have alot more power.

I wouldn't include his into the norm. That motor was rebuilt and probably at much better specs than GM.

^I agree because i have been researching this cam swap, and he is the only one to dyno that high! Everyone else is in the 350-365whp range, depending on bolt-ons.

Most do seem to dyno in the 360 range. There are a few others in the last two pages of the thread who are in the 400HP/TQ range with LS6cam/heads and bolt-ons.
