ls6 cam (most pick one up for usually like a hundred bucks) would be great in that light truck, gears and a posi. And you should blow his doors off. E fans dont make much diff in my opinion just spend the money on a cam

3.08 is killing you off the line. A set of 4.10s might pick you up .3-.5. That and a 3000 stall and you'd be running high 13s.

Waiting on a posi not sure what direction I want to go yet, the problem is I drive this in the winter and posi is not great on a icy road. I might get a mini spool and just put it in for track time....
Im not sure where youre getting this, but in my experience, a truck with a posi with go places a 4X with open diffs wont go. As long as the diff isnt a locker, you should do better in marginal traction situations with a posi. Hopefully youre running winter tires too and you wont have to worry.
I'm nervous about a cam after last weekend, I get to the track and my first run is aginst a 2000 ish rcsb 2wd. I ask him what he's got and he smirks (I get this alot because nobody suspects a LS swap). He's got a 6.0 swap with a cam 2500 stall built trans with a shift kit and a 3.73 posi. I think crap this guys going to kill me...right? He gets me to the 60 and I pass him at the 1/8 th and beat him by .4 and trap 96 to his 91, I never saw him run better than a 15.0 all night and he had a 2.0 60. He did scale 600 lbs more than me but still or maybe it was his diablo sport handheld tuner idk but he should have beat me. Said he had a 224 lift cam? Why was he so slow I have a stock 5.3 stock tranny and had 3.08's I do have a tune but man I don't know.
yea, i don't know on that one. i just know that most of these ls motors will respond well to a cam swap. even with the stock heads. i read an article a while back about a stock 5.3 getting a 75 hp boost with a cam swap only. i don't know if anyone has seen this kind of gain in real life, i haven't, and i'm sure the article was featuring a pretty heavy cam, but nonetheless...
