2008 4.8 zo6 cam

[procelll]

I've been doing some research on doing the z06 cam swap in a 2008 4.8. I was wondering what all of your opinions would be on it. This is for a buddy of mine that wants to have a lil more power for a easily affordable price. His mode are intake full exhaust and a tune. What would he need to do for his cam to work?

ls6 valve springs and maybe some push rods for extra assurance

Needs to be a new style cam.

from what i read, it'll also raise the power band, so be prepared to run in the upper range more often.

springs are needed. rods are recommended. i would tell him to go a lil bit bigger on the cam. configuration of truck?

It's his dd street truck. He will take it to the track every once in a while. What do u mean by a new style cam?
