Z cam
I was wondering if your stock Z's shake at lights. My whole car shakes but I am not sure If I bought it with an aftermarket cam. Does this sound like stock or not?

Stock cam shakes slightly at idle, I guess it depends on how shaky it is. My Z with the MS3 cam shakes alot at idle.

Do you have the standard antenna?
If you do, and it shakes nicely, at a stop..you just might have a bigger cam than stock. I think.
The stock cam has a small movement, small shake,
But if someone else comments on how the car giggles, when your at a stop....you probably are NOT stock.

I like my antenna shake
Just turn on the AC and it's time to rock and roll, more of a whipping action.
It makes people think that "maybe I shouldn't try to race this guy."

Mine has a little shake at a stop, I notice it, but my wife has not. Does anyone have the specs on a 2002 Z06 Cam Shaft? Or know where I can find it.

Once my Z idles down and sits for a few seconds it will begin to shake the car. Nothing huge but it will shake.

Cam for Dummies
Does anyone want to help a fellow forumer out and explain the numbers of a cam just a little and which specs to look for, for more power?
