CED sells ground cams? I thought they were just blanks?

You might want to look at www.TurboTechRacing.com at the Comp Cams, they are the #1 seller for the ecotec and come in 5 different grinds to meet your building needs.

The GM Performance Cams listed are for race only engines and not meant for replacement cams.

From their site:

Note:
The GM Performance Parts ECOtec cam set (88958648 set or 88958636/7 individually) is an aggressive race cam. They are not stock-replacement cams; they require upgraded valve springs and retainers. These cams were designed for a race motor, using the ‘06 L61 as the starting point. The cams will not fit the 2.4L LE5 head and will not work with the stock ECM or lifters. They physically fit the 2.0L LSJ head, but the vacuum pump / cam sensor will not work in a stock engine.

I beg you please do more homework before you blow up your car. You can PM myself or halfcent any questions you may have and Myself or Halfcent should know the answer. What year is your car BTW?

Can we clear something up because I guess I missed something in the last few weeks/months...if you have an 08, how can you get cams and I (07 LS) can't...I know in 07 they added the Cam Position Sensor, so did they change the 08 in some way that it will work, or does SportRedLT not know about that?

You got to want for company's to make cams and all that for the 08 models, there brand new and probably have different setups than 05-07. I own a 06 and i'm getting cams installed this Christmas.

There is currently no over the counter performance intake cam available for the 2nd Gen L61(07/08)

Exhaust will accept a Gen1 cam
