The F Body is the Camaro and the Firebird. The Y Body is the Corvette.

GM designed the LS1 Corvette cam for a bit more HP and the LS6 cam to be a bit higher yet. You could run the LS6 cam in a 5.3 or 6.0 L truck if you wanted. It's pretty tame compared to most aftermarket cams.

Hope this answers your question.
