OK so what cam can i use to hit a 13 in a 2000 RCSB with a 5.3? N/A
I will be using the I6 Trailblazer converter, and a Nelson tune, 3.73's on a 16in rim

Or what will help me hit that number. Thanks

 

High 13's will be easy to hit with a cam, LT headers, stall and custom tune especially since you have a RCSB and 5.3L. What is your elevation btw and where are you located as higher elevation does have an impact on your times.

I wouldn't go too big on the cam especially with the TB converter. Most guys pick a 212/218, 214,220, 220/220 or close to it with 5.3's. If you got a 3000-3200 converter you could go mid 220's if you wanted.

 

13s isnt going to be hard.. their is members doing 13.8 on a 3k stall lt headers 212/218 and a tune.. u could probably get away with a a cam in the high 21* duration.. max 220.. u should be able to hit it np..

 

212/218 cam with 3000 yank and headers put my xcab 13.80s on stock gears

 

Get a real converter and you shouldn't need an aftermarket cam to hit 13's...

Or just go with a mild cam, like those above me said.

 

Magnacharger and skip the 13's, just go to the 12's. 13's get boring quick!

 

x2 on that

 

Lol very TRUE

 

i bet with a tune ,posi, LT headers , and a 3600 stall in a rcsb would get you high 13s

 

I've seen this done on a 2007+ GMT900 RCSB 5.3L and got high 13's without cam. The GMT900's have the higher engine power increase and have better factory heads than the older trucks.

Regardless he will have no trouble at all getting in the 13's or something is wrong.
