Do not put stock head bolts, its not worth the time of standing in the engine bay to pull the bolts to the degree needed 2 different times. I did 1 set of stock bolts and i will NEVER do them again.

Thats a big cam for a "dune" 4wd

Think this will prove that his truck with stock heads and LS7 lifters require a 7.425" pushrod

Yeah a lifter change is needed from a DOD lifter, the DOD lifter is longer than a normal LS7 lifter.

The cam should do well, plans of a converter swap in the future?


What are the TEA dual spring price vs the PAC?
