Cam Helpp! I have 01 z06 and im putting my motor back in and wanted to put a little hot cam in it. And i went up to the dealer ship and they said they dont make a hotcam for a ls6?
My friend has a 01 z06 and had a hotcam in it..
The specs he thinks were like a .525/.525 and like a 216/224 112lsa?
I cannot find which cam it is in their catalog. Ive looked for Gen 3 hot cam no luck.
Can anyone help me with a part number or if they even make one??

are you looking for smooth idle? how high do you rev? drivability or race cam? dyno day big rwhp #'s? i chose the zo6 2002 ls6 cam which positives stock idle, you wouldnt know i have a cam if i didnt tell you. neg low dyno #'s. i wish i'd gone slightly bigger. i think i've seen a hotcam at s*mm*t. reminder with ANY cam you need better springs! ls6 springs are good upto 570 lift. i would go even better (springs) if you rev to 6500 rpm or beyond. the hot cam i remember seeing was only 525 lift but 218/228 dur. read the cam sticky, the board likes tr224 114 lsa would be good all around cam. just my 2 cents. my ls6 cam 550 lift, 218/204 dur on a 117 lsa.

I too have an 01 Z. I had put in a G5 cam fro LG Motorsports when engine was reringed for oil consumption. Dyno'ed 388rwhp 396 rwtq. Still did 28 mpg its like 224/230 581/572
A little rock & roll at idle good street manners. This with CAI headers 30# injectors high flow CATS.
Good Luck

"This regrind is done by a company that has been serving many speed shops in my area for years.It will have a fresh grind with no runs.If you are not familiar with the regrind process it is like copying a key."
This is a BIG NO!!
This is a BIG NO!!

Not no, but hell no. Remember...cam is internal. Would you want something in your car that you bought off of ebay to save a couple hundred (performance wise)? Check out Texas Speed, LG motorsports, Futral motorsports and others
