sorry to ask another cam question, i see how it really pisses some peolpe off......but what do yall think about this cam 212 .558/ 218 .563. on xe lobes 112 lsa and 110 icl.....its gonna go on an 05 gmc ecsb 2wd with a 5.3 with bolt ons and 4.10s.

 

Good camshaft for your intended purpose. Run it and don't look back.

 

Should run great with those gears and no stall.

 

what do yall think the rpm range will be? i still plan on getting a stall even if its the i6 tb converter for now.

 

the tb stall would be great with that cam. i assume you want to stay with a small cam for towing and what not?

 

I'd venture to say it'll lose a little down low from 800-1200 and pick back up around 1300. From there it should pull strong all the way up to 6300-6400 but your peak will still be around 5500-5600 like all trucks.

 

well i dont tow with my truck..i was rear ended and took off the hitch thing. i wanna go bigger but i dunno about cams to well and i just looked at that one from tsp. ive heard good things on the 212/218....

 

That sounds dead on to me...I think that either the TB verter that the OP mentioned or a Yank TT2600 would compliment that cam nicely. I've read that the I6 TB verter stalls around 2500 behind a 5.3 (and it can be had for under $200 )

 

ok another cam to compare next to that one...tsp 220/220 .581/.581 on xe lobes 114lsa and 110icl.

 

Picking a cam is alot more involved then just asking "will this cam be cool" and will it "have a lope"

Lots of variables... weight, power band, convertor size, cubic inch, compression, head flow numbers, rear gears, tire height, shift point, and many others..

One camshaft will NOT work in every 5.3 or 6.0.. every truck is different..

Understand how a camshaft works and you will have your answer.
