    do you have a stall? if you want a moderate cam go with a 220/220. it would work great in your 5.3

    no stall yet. I was thinking about putting a trailblazer stall in. What are some benefits for putting in a stall?

    No, But that is only when it locks up, like 40 mph or something. Im not no expert on stalls. Just knwo the basics. But in the city. at stop lights it will hurt your gas mileage. Ive also know that you can expect .3-.5 off your 1/4 depending on what stall you get.
