Default LT1 cam not roller?
I have been told that the stock Camshaft in the LT1 is actually not a roller camshaft,but the LT1 does use a roller valve train.Any truth to this?

I believe they are backwards on the cam/valve train. All the 92-97 LT1 5.7L engines I've come across have been roller cam and stamped rockers. With the exception of the LT4 which had roller rockers from the OEM.
