    Its a daily for now so it will get a cam thats good with a 3000 stall. One day it will get a real mans cam and ported heads.
    Any suggestions for a cam for now

    your starter and flex plate will swap over.
    Order a converter for the truck tranny.
    I stayed with a car intake with my LS1 swap in my ECSB P/U from power plus seems to work well. Real strong mid & upper end & if I lost any lower end I'll deal with it because its shoots off the line plenty hard and thats with my stock stall. Others have had problems with gasket leak. so far I have none but I plan to go to FAST intake soon as I can spot a good used one. I also will be removing my LS1 to replace bearing and upgrading cam and such, now that I found all my bugs on install from 5.3
