01-02 Camaro Cam is LQ9 cam

[George C]

In my decision to go with LQ9 cam I came across an interesting fact
I was unaware of.

In 2001 to give the Camaro another 5hp all GM did was stick a 6.0L truck cam
in the LS1 and remove the EGR system.

FYI

the increase was from the intake manifold. they actually chose a less aggressive cam for the 01-02 motors. the 98-00 cams were more aggressive.

You're right, just looked it is less aggressive. It's also a reverse split duration cam.
What allowed them to loose the EGR.

It is the LQ9 cam though.
