in the near future i'm planning on camming my 01 z28. my original plan was going with a new lunati voodoo off the shelf cam with a mild setup so I would be able to get away and use single springs pac 1518 or 1215 single beehives as the lift would be under .600 and I would only be shifting at like 6100 RPMs.
I may pick up a used cam from the for sale section that has similar cam specs but the lift would be something like .617/.601. my question is, can I still get away with using single beehive springs long as I keep the RPMs under 6100-6200RPMs?

well if single beehive springs are only LS6 they are only good upto 570 lift. call a sponsor for the best springs for your appl. i'd also consider the trunnion upgrade while you've got the rockers off. cheers!

Crane 1449181 is a 232/236 .600/.600 112 LSA. The exact specs you're looking for.
This cam is very close to the specs you are after and works very well in the LS1/6: https://www.livernoismotorsports.com/product/LPP801112

Our high lift asa cam is a pretty good choice also and good on the budget also. Comes with pac 1218 springs at .600 lift and makes some pretty good power for a med sized cam.
Sounds great at idle too and makes a great torque curve.
$500 cam and springs til next friday.
