Guys,
I am looking to purchase/trade for a new old stock LS-6 camshaft/lifters for my newly acquired '71 LS-6 Corvette coupe.
Original cam has a rounded lobe on #3 cylinder. I believe this cam is same as L72, L78, L71.
Thanks, Warren

We have indeed, Sam! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif But ya gotta remember, I'm a "Show-Me" boy, so let's see what the cam doctor says...no need to worry, I already have the ball rolling on this, and it's a pretty well known N'Easterner donating his time & equipment...so, got any of those *magic* NOS cams laying around we can check against a GM/Crane unit?

That is a good cam! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif Take $400. Don't care what the specs say they just sound different and peform better. Some things don't always play out on paper. JMO!
