ASA Cam and LS6 Springs I've read a thread on this which got pretty confusing. From the top (for my application); Say I want to install the GM ASA Hot Cam (226/236 dur @ 0.050 and 0.525/0.525 lift, 110), in my '02 Z28 SS. According to what I read, if I use '02 LS6 springs, I would not need to use shims. Please help. <img border="0" alt="[worship]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

Re: ASA Cam and LS6 Springs George (2002nhraformula) had the ASA cam with 02 LS6 springs that came with the GM CNC LS6 heads and was floating the valves. He's since switched to dual springs

Re: ASA Cam and LS6 Springs Hey Phill99:
was the ASA cam car for street use? this is one rough dude.
..thinking of going with an ASA but the sound clip posted here is really loopy and LOUD!!!! ...does not sound like a good cam for street use to me... the sound clip is without cats and it uses a loudmouth....maybe it is not that bad>>??

Re: ASA Cam and LS6 Springs The ASA definately works great in a big stall A4. I'm not so sure how great it would be in a street setup M6. One thing's for sure, it definately sounds mean as hell!

This cam would hit harder than any cam on the market due to the 33 degrees of overlap.

Re: ASA Cam and LS6 Springs I am not sure why the ASA would kill the springs either. Does anyone have any insight on this? 226/236 with only a .525 lift should not be bad on ls6 springs since a stock Z06 has lift of much higher. Could it have something to do with ramp rates, etc.
