Shes got pacesetter long tubes, no cats, x-pipe, and 2 single chamber flows. It doesn't lope as much as I thought it would, it seems like it idles right at 800 or so. Is that too high of an idle?
-
i believe he already has the new cam in the truck...which i want to hear a idle clip of the new one! lets here it!!
Ill let the 216/220 for for $100 bucks. It needs to be sent to comp as one of the lobes was really worn. No sound clips from the new cam for a while, motor is coming out. I have a spun cam bearing. Found it when we pulled the old cam out.
-
Why after seeing the old cam like that did you put a new one in?
I never said anything about driving it with the new cam.
-
I was running a 216/220 .586 .586 114. Yeah I'm building it the way I want to since it be out. It's going to be stout. New cam is 224/228 .581 .588 110 lsa

o man that is never any good. i had to mod my driver header a little to get it to clear the front drive shaft.
Mod it for what? I'm pulling the motor and if the header does lean far enough for the motor to come ill take the driveshaft out.

Went to do a cam swap this weekend and had trouble getting the old cam out. Finally after what seemed like an hour Cody was able to get it out. The 4th journal on the cam, second from the back was black, like the bearing was getting really hot. We took a chance and put the new cam in hoping it would be ok, started it up, and the oil pressure was at 6 maybe 7. So we're pretty sure its a cam bearing. Going to get the motor out this week and look at my options.
You can see where this lobe was excessively worn. Cam has 30k on it. Maybe a bearing in the lifter? Or To much spring pressure? Running Patriot Duals. This is the only lobe with wear like this.

from what i was told a person dones not. your truck will get plugged in and it is sent to an office type place where the ppl who really do it say if it pass or fails that is why jiffy lube can do it now
Hey Brad
Im a state inspector. The biggest thing is having a certified inspection station, which we already did at the shop when I got certified. The light car/truck sticker certification is easy. The DOT big trucks is a little tougher.

PS Im going to have plenty of paint work for you to do once I get my denali
Why don't you go ahead bring those heads down and I'll pay you back with paint work later

I was actually talking about James, it was his cam from his 5.3L before he blew the motor. I kept trying to tell him to put it in his ls2 but he was too wussy to do it. Anyway, g/l and get some vids up after install and tuning!
i believe that is Codys friend. Cody said it was in his friends 5.3l and cody sent it off to get refreshed. I guess its the same cam. I bet it is cody lives in round rock
-
sounds like you and I have the same "friend" he doesnt happen to live in Georgetown does he? Lemme know how you like that cam...what size stall are you running?
If you talking about Cody. Yep. Hes taught me everything I know from genereal LSx to installs. I do all of his paint work. Hes had some pretty good builds, so I trust his judgement. He says with my stall it will be a good match with this cam
-
Yep I actually read that thread the other day, just didn't put 2 in 2 together.
My converter flashes to around 3400 maybe a little higher. The guy that has the cam is a good friend of mine, and knows his stuff pretty good. He thinks it will be better than the cam I have now. I am talking strictly 1/4 mile times. Not street or anything.
You can see what it flashes to here

A buddy of mine has a cam that I really want. But for me to afford it right now I would need to sell mine. Would anyone be interested in a 216/220 .586 .586 114+2 cam? I would think $275 OBO for the cam it has around 30,000 miles on it and never had a problem with it.
Remember this is a feeler thread, if I have someone that wants it I'll pull the trigger on it.
So would anyone be interested in my cam? Make an offer, if I like it I can ship this the day after the swap.
I also went 13.46 with this cam with LTs, 3200 stall, wheatley tune, stock injectors, and shift kit

I ran 14.9 Stock and 13.78 with Headers, Tune, and 3400 stall.
-
What kind of gains are to be had with the 3000 stall on nearly stock truck? Few tenths? Much quicker off the line? Sorry, kinda a hi-jack. I've never driven or ridden in anything with other than a stock tc. I have a TBTC sitting, is it going to make much difference or would I be better waiting and getting a 3000 stall?
I had a 3200 stall, long tube headers, and wheatley tune and ran a 13.78. That was when I had a stock cam. The stall dropped my 1/4 time .5 and I was cutting 1.85 60s
And I think a TB converter is like a 2400-2600 stall.

I have a 2003 AWD SS. Black, 31,000 miles. It has a 414ci stroker motor, put down 496rwhp. ARH Headers, Edelbrock ProFlow XT Intake, fuel system etc. Also lowered 2 inches. In excellent condition. $18,500
Now that sounds like a hell of a deal!

I'm currently using torsion keys to drop the front of my truck 2" and I want to go with a pair of control arms instead.
I want to know if I have to change replace my shocks also. I'm currently using belltech lowering shocks that work with the stock control arms, but the DJM control arms look like they have a different shock mount in the pics online.
Thanks
Are you going to sell your torsion keys?
-
Ive always done the stall swaps myself, takes me about 2.5-3 hours. and I got a shifkit installed for 250. So i would think that would be about right if a shop does it. Im not sure how many hours it pays to R & I a transmission
-
yes they would fit
They will fit, the wiring harness is different though, along with the bulb sockets
-
Yes I double checked and that is it. Lets go ahead and get this going. Shoot me a PM. How hard are the keys to put in? Also do the tires lean any with them like they do when you crank the stock torsion bars?
-
Well to tell you the truth it looks like EH2504-2, but the sheet says thats for long bed only 04-06
-
Also does the tire lean any with keys?
