So I should be able to run the cam fine without the stall?

I have the 325hp 6.0L in my Denali. What differs from the 300hp 6.0L?

You will be able to run it with out a stall. Mine went from having a stock cam w/ 3.42 and roasting the tires to comp cam / spinning for just a second. The smaller the motor the bigger the cam will act. You will most likely really need a tune so it will idle right in a 4.8. I have tuning issues still sometimes. My tune sucks though. When I put the stall in it really worked well with this cam and I finally got to see what kind of difference this cam made. It used to only scream up top but now it screams all the time. I didnt know there was a 325 hp 6.0. I only knew of a 300 and the 345 in the caddies

the main difference between the 6.0s is flat top pistons and a few other little things. the 216 cam y'all are talking about will idle just fine in a 4.8, it's not gonna be that much of a difference from a 5.3.

You will have tuning issues with this cam. Mine still acts up once and a while especially when it rains for some reason. Only 6.0s i know are the 300 and 345

The C3 and the Sierra Denali both have the 325hp aluminum head 6.0l. I am thinking about this cam is my C3. I am hoping I will not lose any Torque and still idle smooth.
