MTI's number is 770-919-7774. You'll probably get the quickest response by calling.
This is what I hope I hear on Sunday, you lucky dog you....

Good luck bud, please post some dyno #'s when the car is done. I'm also interested in swapping the cam but I'm not exactly sure if I can live with the rough idle. Is vettedoctors doing the install ?

The cams are interchangeable for the LS1 and LS2. As are the push rods, springs, pulley, gaskets, etc....
98% of the parts on the 2 blocks are the same.
The only difference you run into for a cam swap is the cam sensor, it is mounted on the front of the LS2. By teh way, your stock timing gear and chain are sufficient, unlike the LS1 stockers which needed to be upgraded for a cam swap.

It reminds me of my 58 vette. Had a 3/4 cam, or something like that. A 283 cid with 2 4 barrel Rochesters, and a 489 rear,4speed T10 or muncie ,can't remember. Idle like crap, and got 8MPG. Sold it fr $1300 in 1965. It idled at 1300 rpm. Our C6's are doing 65 mph at the same RPM!
