All LS1's have different cams. Â*Vettes, Fbodies and GTO's, as well as Holdens all have different spec cams. Â*

As for the dyno numbers, thats quite awesome. Â*About spot on with a LS6, though I have seen Z06's put down a little bit more hp, usualy over 400hp, and that was with the IRS set up. Â*Id say take a look at the part numbers on the heads and see if this engine might have squeek past anyone at Ste.Therese.
stock zo6's put down 345-365 to the wheels normally
