I wann get rid of the Vvt crap and go with a regular cam and I'm confused what to do with the injectors and tune did you have to tune it right away with bigger injectors and how did tune it? Got any recent videos of your truck you send me a link b4 of you racing a ly6 silverado truck moves man

Yes it won't run right at all if you don't tune for the injectors. I have efilive and make adjustments myself but also get help via email from a tuner for more advanced stuff.


I actually don't have the motor in the truck yet so I can't tell you how it runs or get videos. But my friends old ly6 ran like a bat out of hell. His was a non vvt cam only 6.0
I have opted for vvt and a few more goodies

All you have to do is get a sponsor to send you a Ecm with a tune and once you do the swap and put your injectors in just put the ECM in and your done till you can get it dialed in.

Email works best for Black Bear Performance. They travel a lot to do on-site dyno tunes but will reply even if it takes a few days.

It was just a ly6 swapped silverado extended cab. The motor was just cam and long tubes, built 60e, 4.10s. It went 12.6@108 (spinning) in Houston after I installed a 100 shot on it. We then later went to a 150 shot but never got times. It was scary fast tho
