Hi there
I am new in the forum
I want your help guys to select a cam for my 4.8L sierra with MT
Now I am running K&N intake, tune, and LT headers
I have 2 cams in mind which are Comp Cam
Lift: .522''/.529''
Duration @ .050'': 212°/218°
RPM Range: 1200-6000
Lobe 114°
Lift: .525/.532''
Duration @ .050'': 216°/220°
RPM Range: 1300-6300
Lobe 114°
and what should I get with the cam valve springs and pushrod what eles?
Pleace help I don't have good experaince in cams
Thanks
hello
What are you trying to achieve?
Gone, but not forgotten!
I want good cam for daily driving with leas noise (little high noise is ok) also without losing the drivability
guys who vote pleace leave any comment
either one will do just fine, the 216/220 will have some better lope!

i voted for the bigger one, i think it will give more power under the curve.
Both work well. I've had a 212/218, LS6 cams, 218/222 and some other stuff and the lil 212/218 is a great DD cam.

Let's face it, the red hair... makes 'em wet.
either cam will be great for a DD. but the bigger cam will be better for the 4.8L. i think you will be happier with it.
I have a 212/218 in my 5.3. it's a great cam, makes power past 6400rpm, nice little lope, i get 20+mpg. mine will be for sale shortly too...
here's my buddy's 4.8 with the same cam
