Chevy High Performance has a good article on the LS2. Here's what they say about the cam:

Same specs or same exact cam?

I mean, the LT1 hotcam is the same as the LS1 hotcam... right?

Y dont you go out and do it. Or you could ask the people that have 6.0's in there cars. Same motor in a sence exsept it is made out of iron. Should make the same power if set up the same.

I would love to have one. Alas, I don't, hopefully I can achieve the same auto trans C6 vette level of performance with a head/cam swap.

Dwayne...

I think it's gonna be a while before the details get worked out on the LS2.

Why don't you get a good reputable company like AP Engineering to build a good solid 346. You've been through a lot with that car. Messing around with new setups like an LS2 swap is asking for more headaches and $$$$ in my opinion.

Scott.

I'd say you'll do that and then some!

Most H/C LS1 setups are making 50+ hp than a stock LS2.
