    it feels great. i got the retune from allen this week but the idle is a little too high. supposed to have another tune on the way.

    as far as the gearing, i think im going to keep the 3.42s. I dont want to overgear and i'll be able to stay in 2nd gear in the 1/4 mile. Im also going to use this new Auburn ECTED locker once i get some extra cash. Im definitely satisfied with the cam though!

    Do you have a EC or SC? And does the white one have any mods? CAI? Exhaust? Or is it a bone-stock LQ4?

    Both trucks are RCSB.

    The LQ4 truck has a tuned stock LQ4 with CAI, built trans (no torque management in tune), exhaust that consists of single in/dual out flowmaster and 2200 stall.

    I have a 5.3 with the 212/218, efans, UD pulley, stock 60E, tune (not for the cam at the time. I also still have torque management left in my tune) and Pacesetter LTs into a Corsa touring.

    We both have open 3.42 differentials.



    Ive got a YankTT3000 that I need to put in and as I mentioned, I'm looking at getting that Auburn locker as soon as i can round up the funds.

    My God--sitting on the floor... Shame on you! If it was me, I'd do it tonight! Or are you going to wait to put it in when the tranny is built? What are you doing to build your tranny?
