Im in the thew process of acquiring a 4.8 longblock and am looking for good cam. Possibly a gm cam that i can buy used out of another ls motor. I'd like to keep it cheap cause its jus a beater project truck.

 

Hey, welcome to PT.net! Check out the classified section and you can probably find a deal on one of MANY cams that you can consider. Also, read the 'sticky' post about bolt-ons and you'll get more info to ponder than you can possibly imagine.

Good luck with your build and safe

 

Either one of the LS6 cams will put a smile on your face.

 

I found a ls1 ASA GMPP cam for $150 on ebay... I bought it and will have it on mine in a few weeks. specs are 226/236 .525/.525 @ 110 LSA. Ill let you know how it works. Its a step up from the gm hot cam.

 

thanks for the replies... and vff jeff lemme know how that cam works out for you

 

That's alot of cam for a 4.8, with alot of overlap...have fun tuning it!

 

Usually I take the time to say that but I've grown weary trying to convince the guys on this site that most of their camshafts are too aggressive for a heavy truck. Glad you said it instead.

 

haha i can understand that. and its goin in a 93 toyota pickup 4x4 if that helps anything

 

Any LS6 cam will work and you can pick one up for less then 50 bucks over on LS1 tech. Ill look through my piles of cams in the garage I think Ive got one Ill give you for free if I can tell the difference between it and the 6L and LS1 cams Ive got laying around.

 

Alright sounds good, thanks
