I would like to buy a cam for the 6.0 before it goes into the truck. Whats a good drivable but lopey cam for the 6.0? I was thinking more like the tr 224/224 112 but if anybody has any suggestions let me know. This will be my dd for a while. I have 4.10s and an eaton posi with the 5 spd.
Thanks,
Derek

 

tr224-112 here daily driven. if i had a reg cab and a five speed i would go bigger.

 

people seem to like the tr224. I am running the tr220-112 in mine and i love it, torque is great and pulls good up top. I am shifting at 6400 and doesn't seem to fall off much. I would have went with the tr224, but i tow my mud truck in the summer and snowmobiles in the winter so i was afraid of losing any bottom end. I think the 224 would work well for you, maybe even a bit bigger. Depends what you want.

 

i'm going with the Texas Speed 228/228 .588/.588 112lsa on my lq9
an its dd IMO thats a good cam for the 6.0

 

your going to wish you went bigger.......

especially if you dont tow.......

 

if only my truck wouldn't have to remain practical.

 

Will i need anything different than the regular swap parts to convert the 4.8 5spd to 6.0? I found a couple of lists of things needed but couldnt find one for the 5 spd swap. Im pretty sure i have the getrag transmission. Almost positive its not the venture 5 spd. Anybody know whats different about the swap?
Thanks,
Derek
