ls7 and ls2 cams wont fit a 5.3, because they are genIV motors and the 5.3 is a gen III. differant knock sensor location i believe.

In the classifieds. I was asking if it were a good turbo cam. And does anyone have specs on it to compare to an 02 LS6 cam?

Did not know they were exactly the same specs. Since I don't have the engine the actual hard parts were of no interest to me until now. There are LS6s in quite a few different platforms, no?
Thanks for clarifying.

CTS-V and Z06's are the only ones I know for the LS6 motor.

Will a Z06 Cam change the idle sound at all?

No, not really at all. It idles very smooth at 600.
