Default LS2 GTO Cam swap "how to"??
Anyone know of a how to for the camp swap on these cars? I have done it in an F-body. I do not think it could be much different but I just wanted to be sure.

There is one on LS1GTO. Its the LS1howto.com instructions but modified for the GTO. But if you've done one in an F-Body, then the goat will be easy. Pretty much the same except for more room

Troof! Be glad it isn't an 04. The radiator isn't much fun in those cars.

That's about what it took with a buddy helping me on one of my cam installs. By myself, it was about 7-8 hours.

Really isn't that hard at all.
