as of now i have a comp 212/218 an im looking for a lil bigger cam that has a more of a choppy idle an still be daily driver... an i have no stall as of now .... throw me some cams out Thanks
what engine do u have?
4.8
Tr220 on a 112 take off converters run duals
i have long tubes no cats 3'' off road y single in single out dumped flowmaster muffler nelson tune........ were a good place to get that cam the one i have now i got from texas speed
Thunder racing check out the video section and hear it on my cousins rst silverado and get rid of the flowmaster lol get u a borla round case
i have gm yellow springs will they work with that cam or will i need to get diff ones?
Those are perfect that's what we ran on it
ok i was told they could only handle a 212/218 so i dident know...... an i hope they will cuz they blow to change lol!
naw there good to .570 lift
ok thanks for the help!
one more qustion if i do a cam swap do i need to pull the rocker's an push rods out or can i just pull the cam? sence i dont have to change the sprangs ??
have to pull the rockers off to get the tension of the lifters. but honestly thats the easy part
Yea u have to if not cam won't come out but its not a big deal just torque em back down to 22lbs
ok thanks for the help fella's
Quick question before you buy the cam, is your truck a regular cab or an extended cab? I ask because I looked at that exact cam for mine, and without a stall on an extended cab it will be a complete turd on the low end being such a heavy truck to get moving. Not sure how they do in a regular cab with the stock stall.
oh yea we have a 3200 stall in the rst....
Yea forgot to mention that. You have to get a stall. At least a 3200. Call Chris at circle d and he will get you what u need
mine is a reg cab dam i dident want to mess with a stall
u dont really need a stall to daily drive...unless your drag racing every weekend you would be okQuote:

I already have one :naughty: and love it. But I think next summer I may need to go bigger and shove a Circle D in there as well.
Still up in the air with what cam I want looking at a 224/224 form ts hm what to do
How would the idle on a thumper cam sound its 219/233 .553 .536 lsa 109 ? I'm really in the water on what I want.. I want a good choppie idle but don't want a huge cam. Need some help fellas thro me some ideas?
That cam sounds awesome but has very very very very (can I stress this any further) very minimal power gains.Quote:

I would get you a sound clip but for one im in Afghanistan. And 2 LS3CC Has my truck at his shop doing some work for me. Maybe you could talk him into getting a sound clip for you.Quote:
