Default heads/cam specs

Where can I find info on stock heads & cam specs and some good information
on choosing the right cam and/or heads? The sticky in the external mods section had some great material and very detailed info on headers & exhaust how come there isn't anything like that over in this section or am I just missing it?
thanks

are these specs correct ?
Why did GM go with a smaller cam in the 01-02 cars ?

smaller cam for added low-end torque...i don't know if those are right but go to the search feature and look up jrp...give him a pm or search around...he listed an entire list of everything you are looking for...he has specs for everything... good luck

thanks guys.
I'm guessing maybe one reason for the smaller cam is because of the LS6 intake and perhaps emissions.

yeah i forgot to mention that, that is also why they have a smaller cam...well actually it is more like they don't have egr because they went with a smaller cam...which is the same thing just in a different order i guess.
