what cam for ls2 without changing springs, etc? Im just trying to figure out what cams are out there for the LS2 that would be a direct replacement for the stock cam? I know the stock cam is pretty small, and just wondering what kinda cam the stock ls2 heads could handle? Has anyone upgreded the cam only, and kept in the stock valvetrain...if not are there any cams that may be in the works for something like that? Any kinda information about that would be great. Thanks

LS2 Springs Are Pretty Good The LS2 springs have a different part number and the LS6 spring part number is superceeded by the LS2 number.
The spring is capable of being used with most of the milder aftermarket grinds. The specs are 100# seat pressure @1.800" and 300# open pressure @1.244" The seat pressure is only 5# less and open pressure is considerably greater than the Comp Cams 26915 spring. The only limitation may be the maximum lift of .570" since spring bind occurs at 1.179"
