Re: is z06 cam worth the install???? Im going with the 02 ZO6 cam, with unported LS6 heads, with a set of 1.8 roller rockers. That with the basic bolt-ons, I know I will be in good shape. Then later im gona get the heads ported, and a new bottom end. <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" /> With just the unported set up what numbers do you think I will put up <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Re: is z06 cam worth the install???? stang: What are the base durations on the '02 LS6 cam? You could wind up w/ ramps too steep to use w/ 1.8 rockers (at least not w/out inducing more valve float).

Re: is z06 cam worth the install???? I would think for the price of an 02zo6 cam an 1.8 rockers you could get a bigger cam, cost less, and make more power than with that set up. JMO.
