Fastest XR265 cammed 4.8/5.3/6.0 trucks?
 
I have been seeing that cam running around the forums a little bit and how much power people made every once and a while.....I was wondering what are a couple of the fastest xr265 cammed trucks out there....what motor is it in,stall speed,drag radials, cal-tracs, ported heads, are they milled.....what basically got you there and how quick are you guys with those cams?

mods in my sig have me at a 14.4 @ 94mph with a 2.4 60ft. Need smaller tires, bigger stall, or bigger cam to help me get my 60ft down. Then I'd be in the 13s

I am thinking about getting the high lift version of that cam, but I want the truck to trap between 100 and 105mph...
I'm not sure if anyone has done it with that high lift version of that cam....but my set up would be ported and milled 5.3 heads, shorties (california truck), 2800 stall, and a true track...my truck is a 2wd RCSB 07 with a 5.3, with 373's in it...I have cal-tracs on it and I have a set of 28 inch ET streets that I use for the track...I remember seeing somewhere that the TBSS intake would be overkill for a cammed 5.3....just not sure if it would still be overkill for THAT 5.3 set-up with the heads and such...the 100-105mph traps are what I'm seeing if anyone has done with that cam, and what their set-up was...

you should be able to trap around 100, 105 probably not. the fastest i have seen that cam go is low 13's.
the converter, gears, and shorties might be working against you though. what is the elevation at the track?

JeRM82 01-08-2011 05:48 PM

The three tracks where I am at that I go to are...famoso raceway in bakersfield...its under 900 feet I think...Fontana...where the heat is what kills me every time I've been there...and the 1/8th mile track irwindale...
I know that the trap speed is what I used as the example...but a truck in the low to mid 13's reliably is what I'm seeing is capable without just stepping up to an LQ9/LQ4...that would be the easiest way to go if that cam struggles to trap 100mph in a 4500 pound RCSB with only a 2800 convertor in it....what to you think bluecajun?

I've ran out at the eight mile with my old SS trailblazer with just the radials and the shift points changed and ran 8.81/2/3's out there...I'd like my new truck (the ex wife got the SS in the divorce) to just run a little quicker...ha ha...
