I'm building a 66 C10 short box and im currently looking into cams, intakes, headers, stalls and gearing for my rear end. Any other guys out there with 4.8s that can help a brother out ??? Im looking specifically for some recommendations from your experience as you guys are the experts !!!

Im thinking of going with in my 4.8L (2003):
3200 stall
212/218 .522 .529 114 LSA Comp Cam
shorty headers (as I don't have much room between my frame)
Fast LSXR 102mm intake
3.73 rear end

What do you think ?

Thanks !!!

 

don't forget heads as they help complete your work very good .

 

I wouldn't bother with the fast 102, that 4.8 isn't going to need that much air, I'd get a ls6 intake for much cheaper

 

any ideas where I could get a cheap ls6 intake ?

 

You can go bigger on the cam, 90mm tb would be fine. 220/224 575/575 @112 runs very well in my 4.8.

 

tbss/nnbs intake and tb

 

How much advance does that cam have?

 

man i gotta 4.8 in my 06 silverado. did around 350 rwhp.

.607/.614 lift cam 112 lsa
3600 stall
4.10's
ls7 lifters
p&p 243 heads milled .015's

has good solid power. i enjoy it but wanting more lol swapping to a 6.0 in a month! heres a vid of my 4.8 doin work.

Really need to know what your use and expectations are for the performance build.

Regardless what you go with skip the Fast intake manifold, if you go with anything it should be a NNBS or TBSS intake manifold. Even then I don't think its will be worth any noticeable gains a 4.8L mild build.

 

Agreed. The intake he has on it pulls good to 7000rpm on a 4.8.
