It is. I would love to supercharge it someday. HGT has an awesome build up on the 2.4 section that has me motivated to do so, but money is holding me back! Lol

Hey there! Thanks for replying. I'll post some pictures within the next couple of days. The car is actually with my mechanic right now. I wanted to now if anyone knew if the camshaft could be replaced with an OEM camshaft from a different engine. I bought it a month ago and the previous owner had installed a few aftermarket parts to increase its performance, but didn't get the computer tuned and now it's having some issues. There arr no places close to my location that do computer tuning and they're also kinda expensive, so I decided to swap out its current camshaft to hopefully resolve the problem. Since I'm having a hard time finding OEM parts for my LSJ engine, I thought I just ask about it...
Thanks again!

Welcome to the site. I too have an 06 SS/SC. Why do you think the camshafts are an issue?

It's misfiring at about 1500 rpms and it also takes a little while to start up. We have done most of the trouble shooting already and came down to it. Anything else you would suggest?
thanks!

Do you let the fuel pump prime when you try to start it? Mine doesn't like to start if I don't turn the key and let it prime for a couple seconds (usually about the time it takes me to grab the seatbelt and get buckled up). Are you getting any codes related to misfires? How old are the plugs? Do you have any idea what has been done to the car performance wise?
