well...i got the 6.2/6L80e working perfectly. i love the way the truck drives, and the way it pulls to 6500 the thing i hate is when its time to stop with this big cam, stock converter.

im kicking around the idea of swapping to Hydro boost. 400-600 depending what i can grab cheap.

the vacuum canister is on JEGS/Summit for about 100ish. black, chrome, polished.

who runs a vacuum canister on their big cam, stock converter trucks?


228/236 112+2 comp lobes i think, dont know the exact lobe design.

 

Pu the hydraulic booster on. You will have more braking power than if your stock vacuum booster was working properly.

 

it worked well with the converter, but now that i plan on staying with a stock converter. i love the way this thing runs as it is!

i guess imma look into the hydro boost set up. i dont have the cash to waste right now on a large swap like this thanks to a house note coming up.

 

+1 on hydroboost. Stops way better now. And I only have a little less than 300 in my setup.

 

from what i here hydroboost is the way to go... i plan to do it one of these days

 

I did a writeup on it and put it on a couple forums. Total cost for mine was around $200.

 

i know....i seen it on GMfullsize.com and it got me thinking

i dont feel like searching for the thread again, but did you reuse your stock PS pump and just T into the return line? i think i seen only 2 fittings on the PS pump, i could be wrong.

no one has done a Hydro set up on the 07+ have they? its kinda cool being the 1st to do it

 

Yep, just T'd it.

 

hmmmm so all i need is the lines, the brake pedal, the booster i may just have to do it!

 

Yep, I got all the parts I needed for under $200
