    It is not a direct swap. The cam position sensor is in a different spot. Probably just as easy to buy a new cam.

    Gen 4 V8 camshafts,

    won't go into Gen 3 for the above reason. Though Gen 3 cams will fit into a Gen 4 as long as they are fitted with a 3-bolt cam sprocket.

    If you want a decent factory cam, the 2002-2004 ZO6 cam (204/218 .550/.547) would do a good job for your engine swap and a ZO6 tune file from the tunefiledepot will have all the important bits needed.
