questions about my ls6 cam.....about to attemp the swap
hey guys ive never done a cam swap but my buddy has alittle..... i bought aused ls6 cam with under 5k miles. and the set of push rods that came stock witht that motor. also the guy sent me a brand new set of gm yellow springs.
my motor is an lq4 6.0l
- do i use my stock lq4 pushrods
- do i need a special tool to hold the lifters up
- do i need to buy a set of retainers and seals for the springs or can i use my lq4 ones?

i did my head and cam swap last weekend. follow what the haynes manual says about torquing everything down and you will be fine. and be VERY careful when removing the old cam and installing the new cam to not knick or scratch the cam bearings, use plenty of assembly lube.
