Sounds good through the stock cat-back. Here are some videos.

Question

Are those 1 7/8" primary tubes or 1 3/4", DL?

Looks and sounds NICE!

1-7/8" with the catted y. I love the way it sounds, like factory muscle.

Ditto on the sound - LUV it! Mine's a tick louder than yours with it's factory 3 1/2" exhaust.

ARH may have "adjusted" their jigs, as your headers clear your steering intermediate shaft just fine.

I've been tossing the idea around of swapping to an LS9 ZR1 cam. I've been searching around and have compiled a list of parts which I hope is correct. What I have found so far:

LS9 Camshaft 12638427
Lifters 12499225
Valve springs 12499224
Front cover gasket 12633904
Front crank seal 12585673
Push Rod Guide 12595365 x4
3 bolt 4x cam sprocket 12586481
Cam sprocket bolts 12556127/ ARP Cam bolts
Valley cover 12598832
Ls2 dampener 12588670
Head Gaskets 12498544
Crank bolt

Also is there anything I'm missing/wrong part or something I've included that I don't need?

I'd like to get on this so any help would be great! Thanks.

Got some MTI Racing plug wires for my truck, nothing major but thought I'd share.

It was mentioned to me that adding the cam will put me above the limit of my stock pistons and the factory fuel lines won't support the amount of fuel required. Anyone have Any experience In this area?

I hope the person thats telling you that isnt working on your truck. Adding a cam will not max the fuel lines nor the pistons out

I do all the work on my truck, that's the fun of it!

I guess their concern was weak ring land under boost with high hp and the fuel system falling off at the top of quarter mile. I'm not doubting anyone in anyway, I just don't know these motors well enough. My brain is hurting from all the searcing and reading lol
