Default Comp/small Thumpr cam for 6.0

Here is the set up. 02 sonoma 6.0 with a 02 LS6 cam for now. headers normal stuff. I pulled a thumpr cam out of a customers truck he went with a LOT bigger stick for racing.

The cam was free with only a couple thousand miles on it. I have a set of used PAC 1218 springs from an terminated engine from the specs it looks like they will work fine want opinions on this?

Push rods will stock length work for this cam. I can not remember to save my soul the length of pushrods I put in when I did the ls-6 cam it has been too long.

IIRC the LS6 cam uses different length pushrods than normal because of its smaller base circle

The Ls-6 pushrods will not be correct. But will stock length pushrods for the standard 6.0 cam work.

Specs are 219/233 @.536 lift It's the baby thumpr cam. I'm not racing it I just want a nice driver with a "hey it's got a cam sound". Don't really care how much more power other cams can make over this one. It sounded nice in the truck I pulled it out of. And most importantly it was FREE
