there is actually two cams in each head, located just under the valve covers.

I tried mutiple times to contact Comp Cams and they never replied to see if I could have some made and if we could do a group order to make it worth their while

ya iv seen tht ls on there be4 i dont think its got the stock motor in it and ya i looked on comp cams to and ever tried to see if i could contact someone important to get one made lol but o well i guess a 427 swap would do the trick anyways.....(i freakin wish) but do any of u guys no if the 4.2 supercharged engine from jag with bolt up tht engine was in the concept version of the ls's and i wish they would have done it

Engine swaps cost tons of money.

Jaugar engines cost a lot of money. Put them together and you have even more money.

How serious are u about having a cam ground? I can point u in the right direction. Just went through the process myself. Inbox me so we don't make a long drug out thread for nothing.

ya and if i remember correctly he blew his engine shortly after he put the cams in

Comp cams is capable of regrinding stock cams, but the improvement is limited due to the stock valvetrain geometry. I have located and acquired a set of semi-ground cam blanks that'll make things somewhat easier.

I think it was stock

That sounds about right

the LS uses bucketed tappets so you will have to replace all those if you change the cam - they are so wear sensitive, you have to put them back in the same pllace if you pull the cam and tappets for any reason.

you can't by replacement from Ford
