Default LS7 Camshaft

Getting ready to buy a house, so the LS7 cam swap into the SSS idea is being shelved. This should make a great blower cam with specs very similar to the LPE GT7 camshaft. IIRC, you'd need an LS2 timing gear, cover and cam sensor to have this work in a Gen-III motor.

Asking $135 shipped. Haven't removed it from the box from the previous seller, so no pictures available yet. Can be provided if needed.

Thanks,
Justin

How does this compare with the LS6 cam when put in a Gen 3? (If you know)

Can't remember exactly what the number was, but IIRC, A&A Corvette claimed massive gains over an LS6 cam on a blown 5.7L. Not sure what it would do on an N/A motor.

Pretty soon I am going to get a turbo setup, and I know that the LS6 is a good turbo cam, and even makes pretty good power on N/A motors. I have the LQ4, and there are a lot of cam options out there, N/A or FI. Just trying to find the best one.

Nice Sig Pic Justin...I Live here in Alexandria also. I don't think I've seen your truck or car though. I've got an 03 silverado SS and an 00 Z28.

I live just off of Rte 1, near Potomac Yard... Work from home, so the truck only gets out for short trips. What color is your SSS?
