The cam i have requires a 3000 stall and is kinda rough for a DD. You can see the truck shake up and down when cold but I like it that way. The idle is awesome it really turns head. It behaves when hot though. I think your cam would be good but check the specs and you can also look at LS1howto.com to understand cams. want to understand?

Every 5000 KM with 5-30 valvoline, whatever they use...

How much are those Cylinder heads worth brand new?

I was starting to look into cylinder heads. Would this be a good choice for my setup? How much for the heads?

They are no threat anymore. I have put on my headers on and removed the cats to let breath my cam. I ran against a brand new model and beat him by at least 5 lengts. Sorry no times, it was real street racing at Sanair Dragway. No time slips and regular street light. The time starts with the light. But man, he was far

This is what i'm running, good intake for the price. looks good too.

I just got done with my Pacesetter's install. I had a big surprise when I went to pick up my truck, they removed the cats!!! I wasn't sure if they would need to do so but it is raspier than before and my truck is a daily driver. it smells also. but the crisp and throaty sound is nice. I don't have to pass emissions here anyways. I'm still wondering if cats would minimize that sound?

Looks real good!

The easiest way is to rub your nails on it. If it feels smooth it is waxed. If it feels like your scratching a black board, it needs to be waxed.

I saw a couple around town and they look real good to me.

They can't hook up a tranny cooler??? I'd be worried or i'd do it myself Just my opinion

Hey newbie, you'll have to behave if you want to stay on this forum.

I burried the needle a couple of times, enough to follow a WS6 trans-am at the same speed past the speedo for couple minutes. Also played around with the bikes... My guess is 140...but I can go even faster It just doesn't take the curve the same way than my camaro did

Not really, I went back but it was very humid and hot. I did a best of 14.79 And you?

Yeah, it was not a good ride for him but he did better after. more like 14.0 When I launch, the truck doesn't move until 3000 rpm. I can brake stall it to 3000 but it doesn't do any good. launching at 1500 rpm is the best so far.

I actually beat one at the track and gave a good run to one on the highway. They are fast though.

Yes, get a good quality spring compressor. The one that compresses 2 springs at the time. For the price, you can't beat that cam. You'll like it. Oh yeah, you should read the article on ls1 how to .com

Thanks for the replies so far. Sniper : I read your topic as well and find that we have a similar problem...our cam is close. Very interesting. I am surprised that you cannot brake stall it beyond 2000 rpm. Those brakes can't hold the truck I have to press as hard as I can to hold it to 3000. My first run was right after I get off the highway. I did the same thing last time I went. My best run is always the first one. After that I don't know what happens but it slows down a bit. I also tried different rpm's to launch that's why there is so much inconsistency. It was around 14.5 all night after my first run. Go figure. I have an aluminium CAI that may warm the air or maybe the truck is hotter although it's been at the same temps after that. Also guys I don't have headers...could that be something. I also read about the intake limitation of the truck beyond 5000 rpm.... So from what I see you get a better launch from idle is that it Sniper? Detjoe : I don't have a way of playing with my tuning at all....

I tried to launch at different rpm's . Around 2000 gave me a good launch. I didn't try to brake stall it yet, but I'll try and see. I didn't even try to launch from idle. I got my best time launching at 1500 though...yes the tune is a mail order. I was wondering if I should have bought a 3200 stall

I went to Napierville Dragway again. I changed my stall to a 3000, changed exhaust and gained a lot since last time. I did : 2.024 60' 9.126 1/8 mile 14.28 1/4 mile 96.73 mph Before exhaust and converter: 2.113 60' 9.418 1/8 14.67 1/4 93.725 mph Also I ran against a Ram SRT-10 reg cab short bed. As I read my slips I notice that I've won the first race against him. That explains the look on his face lol He won the other race with : 2.248 60' 9.121 1/8 14.028 1/4 105.25 mph I had a run against the new Tundra reg cab long bed. The guy claims he just bought it and it's brand new. I won but not by much. He did : 2.114 60' 9.360 1/8 14.594 1/4 96.112 mph I did : 2.129 60' 9.395 1/8 14.591 1/4 96.025 mph So why am I as slow as the Tundra with 0$ in mods??? Are they that strong? I thought I would break in the 13's this time but it doesn't look like it... Do you guys have any idea?

With a cam like mine they are just too loud. it was ok before the cam though. I just had my magnaflow installed today and it looks good so far

I don't know about your numbers but a cam will come in the mail quite fast except if you order a custom grind. It might take a little longer since it's a special order.

Your profile...personnal page

It's like me when I race against a Hemi lol

it's looking good. Spent more time on your personnal page though lol
