F bodies have a smaller cam, more restrictive intake and exhaust. http://www.idavette.net/hib/ls1c.html

Contains all info regarding LS1, except cam specs.

I thought c5's were faster because they were lighter and had better exhaust then even the SLP SS exhaust and a much better intake. But arn't the cams the same, except for the z06?

im pretty positive i have a more agressive cam, and ive read "intake differences" im wondering if this means i have an LS6 intake?
also, are the heads the same...the articles helped alot, but id still like specifics.
thanks
