BTR Stage 4 truck cam 5.3l vortec
For those who have or has any knowledge on a stage 4 BTR truck cam on a 99-06 5.3L. Whats the rwhp gain? is there anything to be changed to a stock 4L60e or the 5.3l? Would you recomend it? I wanted to ask becuase so far some people give really good reviews on it and the cam itself is strong and choppy, i would appreciate your reviews and recomendations.
Thank you in advance

However, that cam is a 224/230 @ 111LSA and it's choppy.
There is a good chance that driveability is going to suffer from the stock torque converter.
When I had my 5.3 and OEM 60e, I put a cam in it and a Corvette servo setup in it and drove it for about 40k before the trans let go.

Im running a comp cam 225/230 112lsa which according to people at BTR is same as their stage 4. I have it in a 6.0l though with a yank 3000, no problems so far.

Like machine work?
Should be none.
Just new lifters, push rods, new valve springs.
Though I do not recommend that cam in a stock 5.3 with nothing else. Use a cam better suited for a stock application. Something smaller in the 210-212/218-220 range that works with a stock converter.

Ok, that is what I had thought, I am leaning more towards the BTR Stage 3 since it is a daily. Would you have any cam suggestions that would make similar power figures with a more streetable setup? Personally would prefer quite a bit of lope so maybe something with a little less overlap than the BTR Stage 4? Should be mentioned I am not the best mechanic as I'm still learning.
