Stock cam specs please
Stock cam specs please What are the stock cam specs of the '05 LS2 cam?
Would you expect any issues if this cam was put in an LQ9 motor with respect to the cam sensor?
Thanks....

It's the same spec as the 2001 LS6 cam. 204/211 .525 lift 116.5 lsa, but does not have the reluctor ring pressed in. So just order the actual 01 LS6 cam so it has the reluctor ring for the cam sensor pressed on and you're good to go.

No ring on the LS2 cam... got one in a voodoo box out in the shop.
Just don't know what to do with it.
You'ld be better off ordering up the the 02/03 LS6 cam. Slightly larger and if you happen to have a set of LS2 (243 casting) heads they should already have the GM yellow springs installed. The ones that can handle up to .550 lift.

I need to go back to my buddies speed shop and trade the LS2 for an LS6 cam it looks like!
Thanks!

Though I only dropped one this time 
DrkPhx, this LS2 cam is in my Denali along with an AirAid intake feeding a Magnacharger with a 2.85 pulley pushing 9+lbs of boost exiting through a B&B triflow catback exhaust with an upcoming custome tune. Untuned, I whipped an intake and exhaust modded 350Z from a dig over the weekend.
Stock LQ9 cam: 201/196 .479 .467 116 LSA
Stock '01-02 LS6 also '04-'05 LS2: 204/211 .525 .525 116.5 LSA
Stock '03-'04 LS6: 204/218 .551 .547 116 LSA
Everyone agree with these specs and years?

Just a minor correction...02 - 04 (vice 03-04) LS6 had same cam. This is one of the reason why 2001 Z06 came with 385 hp and 2002 - 2004 Z06 had 405 hp rating.

I would love to put a supercharger on my Denali. Do you have a soundclip of the exhaust? Curious to know how loud it is on the inside when driving.
According to our cam doctor, the LS2 specs are as follows.
Lobe Seperation = 115.9
Intake Centerline = 111.9
Exhaust Centerline = 119.9
Intake Duration @ .050 = 203.7
Exhaust Duration @ .050 = 212.5
Intake valve lift = .52044
Exhaust valve lift = .52111
