GPI L86 (6.2L) DI Truck Low Lift Cams - STG2 (2014 GMC Sierra 1500 5.3L / Chevy Silverado) - L86LL2
Stage 2 Low Lift Camshaft for 6.2L Direct Injected GM Trucks
The GPI L86LL2 is the ideal low lift camshaft for truck owners who want a stronger, more aggressive power curve while still maintaining excellent drivability. Designed specifically for the L86 6.2L Direct Injected truck platform, this cam delivers harder midrange acceleration, increased top-end power, and a noticeable performance gain over the STG1 - without compromising everyday usability.
Because centrifugal superchargers follow a very similar linear power curve to NA builds, the L86LL2 also works beautifully with centrifugal blower setups. This makes it an excellent choice for owners who may add boost later.

FAQs
Do I need a stall converter for the L86LL2?
Yes. A 3000+ RPM stall converter is recommended to take full advantage of the STG2 powerband.
Is this cam good for boosted setups?
Absolutely. Because centrifugal blowers follow an NA-like power curve, the L86LL2 performs extremely well in blower applications.
