The description for the 3000 does sound right. How will it behave behind my little 5.3L?

 

some say go about 400rpm higher than the stall you want:-P

i got the yanktt3000 on sale also.. couldnt pass it up lol

 

The Yank TT3000 is about perfect for a 5.3.I ran one back when I had a 4L60E and no supercharger.It will feel a little loose for the first hundred miles,while the PCM adjusts to the change in stall,then you'll think you truck should have come with the stall.It's about the best bang for the buck mod you'll find.

 

I think i'm convinced then. A Yank TT3000 to install before the cam.
How many hours is normal for a convertor install?

 

depends if you have a lift or just jackstands

anywhere from 4-9hours depending on if everything goes right and the tools you have.. i htink some have done it in 3 on a lift before

 

Unfortunately, I dont have a garage-or tools for this job and am going to farm it out to my favorite performance shop.
After install should i have him tweak the tune?

 

If you notice, he has a 4x4. It's going to be on the high end of that range or above.

I paid $470 in labor to have mine changed.

 

The guy that put my FLT and Dacco in charged me $210 and he got it done in like 8 hours.

You will love the 3k stall, 4wd launches at 3k are the best! lol

it will be fine behind the 5.3 and when you finnaly do cam it, it will be even better. I say go with a 212/218 or 216/220 if you are not trying to set any records with it. But is you are then the biggest I'd go with a 5.3 in an ext cab is 222/222.

 

Got quoted $450 + oil by my performance shop. About fair then. Ordered the Yank TT3000 today, should have it by friday.

 

I say keep shopping around I still think that is a little too pricey...
