All the current production LSx engines have compatible heads/cams etc.

the second cam you put down up there is pretty much close to a stock LS1s camshaft.

only heads that are excluded from your list would be LS7 and L92 heads. ported LS6 heads are probably all you need. personaly id go with a bigger cam, unless you have to deal with a daily driver.. but even then id run a bigger one..
