Default Got bored and ordered a new cam for the truck.....

I was just wanting something different/bigger... this is what I bought...

Comp Cam-222/224-.566/.568 112+2

Should sound pretty nasty in the little 4.8... If it is here by this weekend I will slap it in and hopefully have new track times on Thursday, maybe even new dyno numbers the following week....

Anyone want to help with the install?

should have said something, i have a vindicator cam I would sold ya cheap... or the 215/215 i just got...

if you need some help with the install let me know, got lots of free time on my hands, have some "special" tools for the install also, learned a lot about using the right tools doing an ls1 cam install, i've done 30 or so.
