A quote from Lingenfelter:


"Tests on the LS1-GT2-3 have shown 25-30 HP improvements over factory LS1, LS2 camshafts and this camshaft can be used in 350 CID - 427 CID applications. This camshaft also works well in supercharged or turbocharged applications."

LS1-GT2-3 207 / 220 .571" / .578" 1.7 ratio 118.5

If you have a Z06 cam in an LS1 with LS1 heads (99 frc in your profile), then you must have changed the push rods to longer ones since the Z06 cam has a smaller base circle.

Your going to need to check depth and probably go with the 7.4's again.
