You would not need a retune, but a retune will get the most out of the cam.

If you dont already have a tune then get one. a Nelson 93 tune will give you more HP than the LS1 cam and its alot easier to install...
What year and model LS1 cam did you get?
Big slow mud truck with a TUNE!!!!!!
its from a '98 Vette

The early LS1 cam is the more aggressive of the two versions used. It was used from 1998 through 2000. It has 12º more intake duration than your 5.3 cam. Even though your engine will run OK w/o a tune, there's still a risk of running lean at WOT. If it were me, I would get the tune.
i will be here very shortly, just roundin up some extra $$

Free or not, it's not worth the effort involved. I mean it's not free, gaskets crank bolt, coolant etc. Still gonna cost some money so why not make it worth it.

i already have the coolant and other fluids needed, the gaskets on all GenIIIs are reusable as long as your careful, and i dont care about the hassle. i like takin engines and s**t apart. im not tryin to sound like a dbag or anything
