Is this really an LS6 cam? I'm skeptical.

I have been looking for an LS6 cam for a week or so and have had a guy respond that says he has 3 for sale. I am new to the LS engine so I have relied on Google to find info. From what I have found the 02+ LS6 cam should say 5308 somewhere on the end. I asked the guy what the numbers were on the cams and this is what he sent back...

Quote:

I found 3 and i only keep cams that came out of LS6 motors. The numbers are 2167 3213 and 2128

Are any of these really LS6 cams? I can't find anything online telling me what these numbers really are.

Thanks a ton,
Tyler

Have him send you a pic of the numbers stamped/etched on the end...

Here's what the "5308" cam should look like...

Was 5308 used in any other cam? The guy I'm buying one from gave me the numbers but they read as follows 5308 s15 4314

5308 is the last four digits of the actual GM part number. It was used in 02-04 Vettes. The complete GM is 12565308.
