Welcome to the site...that's a sick truck man. I'm usually not a huge fan of e.c. but that thing is clean! I know your going to get a lot out of this site, basically any ? you got, there is an answer waiting for you.
Welcome to LS1truck mayne! Nice lookin truck...love the black wheels with the chrome lip! What motor--5.3L I hope...considering the 224R cam. BTW--how do you like it? From what I know, the 5.3L loves higher duration numbers...
WELCOME TO LS1TRUCK!!!!
damn cant see the pic from work !!!
Welcome to the site!
Sup Will? I just joined over here too! I need to bring my latest project by and let you check it out. I'm swappin a 5.3/4L60E into an '86 stepside Chevy. Sorry to hijack your thread.
Welcome aboard man! The truck looks nice and clean. Im really diggin it for sure!
Yep, 5.3L. I haven't driven the truck much since doing the cam, and that was on an old tune not set for the cam. But from what I can feel already is that I lost a little low end, but from 3k+ it pulls hella nice! Didn't take it past4500rpm yet though! Should have me new tune in new week, then on Nov 16th I'm getting it lived tune by Justin @ BlackBear!!Quote:

Welcome.
Yeah, no real reason to try and get into it when the tune isn't set for the cam cause it will be a big let down... Wait till the new tune comes in...then romp on it every chance ya get! The .581 lift does make the power come in later, but once it comes in--damn--watch out! I have a slightly smaller cam (duration-wise) and it is ridiculous about 3k rpms. I tried to pass someone on a 2 lane road the other day...from a 35 mph punch, I got a 3-1 downkick and obliterated the rear tires--took me longer to pass them cause I was spinning than it would have if I just barely pushed down the gas! What size Crircle D 'verter yuou gunna get? 3000?Quote:

Yeah, good call on getting rid of the TBTC...it is only good to about 2400 anyway--and you need something more than that. A TT3600 might be the ticket! :thumb:
Will who installed your cam?
Me or Will?
welcome..
Will. He's local to me. I was just wondering who put it in. I'd love add a cam to my C10 project.Quote:

Thanks for the links man!
Yea, I did it myself. No biggie!
