Default LS6 cam???

They are selling me a stock cam/springs that came off a 02 WS6 (RamAir), I asked the owner if it is considered a LS6 cam and he did not know, he said it might be since it has a LS6 intake..... so does anybody know if it is considered an LS6 cam/springs???? thanks....

nope, there is no wat to tell if its an ls6 cam really that got put in there from the factory, but there were very few that did have one. i wouldnt waste the time or money not being sure.

the assumption about ls6 intake gets ls6 cam is 100% false

Since you have to do all the labor of a cam swap, why not get a little meatier cam than the LS6? the TR224 is a good daily driver cam.
