LS6/Z06 cam??

I know swapping the stock cam for a z06 cam is somewhat popular mod. ive just got a couple questions. 1) what are the specs for this cam, int/exh and what size lift with 1.8 rockers. 2) im sure the idle isnt rough at all, but how much gas mileage will decrease with this cam? your prolly asking why not go with a bigger cam but my car is a DD and im going with a D1-SC procharger to maintain maximum gas mileage and drivability but id like to add a small cam to see how it would compliment the procharger. and lastly anyone have any sounds clips? thanks!

The more popular is the 2002+ LS6 cam, which is also found in the CTS-V caddy and Z06.

sounds pretty much the same as the stock cam, gain is about 20-25-rwhp with a good tune.

Hawk232 just went 11.9x at 116mph with this cam in a 6-speed SS.
