how does this compare to an lq9 stock cam?
It's better! it's a comp. :lol:
Little different valve opening and closing times and little more duration.
Too small for your 6.0 IMO Mikey.
great cam,i ran that same cam in my 5.3.
has 16 degrees more intake duration and 18 degrees more on exhaust and more lift too. I have used this same grind in a 5.3 and a 6.0 and liked it thats why I was gonna do it again , But its just way to small for my new stroker.Quote:

would this be a good street cam for my truck 99 5.3, i drive it mostly highway and dont want to give up to much MPG.
I have cash in pocket right now too. If only I could sell the ls6 cam laying in my room I would take this off your hands right now.
I never really compared the gas mileage with my stock cam, But I know it takes alot less throttle on the highway with this cam and you can roll along at 70+ easy. I had this grind with a nelson tune and it was great.Quote:

I ran it with a stock tune for about 2 months just unplug your battery for 30 minutes to reset the long term fuel trim when you install it. I would use a set of Z06 springs this cam is mellow and easy on springs with the lower lift.Quote:

You will hate this cam. It will make you wish you never installed it. :lol:
I'm being sarcastic if you couldn't tell. I'm just trying to stall you off from getting it so I can! :)
I am not the kind of guy to step on toes, it is all yours. just let me know if you end up not wanting it. :thumb:
on my 6.0 I had it dyno tuned and with this cam and a cold air it made another 47hp at the wheels, it actually felt like more in the truck because the power range was alot wider.Quote:

I was looking at the high lift version of this cam. Looks like a good deal.
