See why we want people to use the search? We've answered this question over and over and over. Or even just lurk around the section.. you're bound to come across a helpful thread on the subject in no time.

Same cam I am running in my personal vehicle and I love it. It can be used w/ LS6 Springs also, but the upgrade to PAC1218s and Manley 25735s is always a good idea!! Let us know if we can help you with placing an order!
