the shaft should be the same on cc/ec 6spd 2wd trucks. 4/awd trucks have a slightly shorter one due to the transfer case.

i have noticed that. takes a bit more throttle to get it moving. little tune work will help some. just can't over come mechanical constants. mpg didn't drop though. just gives me an excuse to put the 4.10's in that i have had for over a year.

how did your cam swap come out?

Great. Took about 4 hrs. Noticeably more torque and high rpm power. Getting the tune adjusted this week. I'm sure that will wake it up even more. Still on the fence about switching to E85. I hear more negs than pos frome people. I know you like it though. Probably add a 2800 stall next.

right on. in all honesty, the ls9 cam in mine will light the tires still, it's also easier for the misses to drive. not as touchy. i need a 3200 multi disk.

i run e85 due to the power i get out of the truck. i drive maybe 15 miles a day. i think you should give it a shot. you'll like it if the tune is done right for it.

My biggest fear is the mileage. The 6.2's seem to benefit more from it than the 4.8's or 5.3's. I may just stick to the Amoco 92/93.

could do that too. i thought your truck was a flex fuel truck anyways? you could just have the timing added to the alcohol adder tables and leave the wot fueling the same ratio. that way, if you don't like it. put the pump gas back in.

Looks like the game turned into another "Thinkin' 'bout an LS9 cam" thread.

2010 and newer didn't improve ****. im on my third one. this is why my speed limiter is back to stock. pisses me off, but, i have risked enough thus far. not doing it anymore.
