Default What to do with a 2002 SS Stock Cam???

I am going to be picking up my car by next friday from Cartek with the Z06 stage II head and cam package.

My question is, do you think anyone would want a 2002 SS cam that only has 5,800 miles on it?

I know the 2002 cams are more aggressive then prior years, so I am not sure if someone with a 99+ would want it?

Should I even attempt to sell it, or put it on a shelf to collect dust?

Keep it by the bed....if anybody ever tries to break in you'll have quite a weapon to wield. Thats what mines for.

i know they are a little more agressive...however is it worth somebody's time to do a cam swap and get only "5" rated hp, lol <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> I do hear the 2002 have more low end, and more midrange, not sure on dyno proof of this.

I did think of looking for a 2002 cam for the 98-99 i am getting as soon as i find one...however if im going to do internal motor work, most will agree it would be better to go to a hotcam, or a Ls6 cam.

(somebody find me a 98-99 WS6 M6 NBM TA

I think the ’01 and up have more duration, less lift and less lsa. So it’s really hard to say which is more or less aggressive...

I say throw the cam at the next ricer that tries to pull a flyby. <img src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" border="0" alt="[devil]" />
