i want to know is it any good. i tried searching and all its says is its no good. i want to know from people that have it if its a good dd cam. i work at a dealership and can get it cheap. it seems to do well with 5.7's. i have a 4.8 right now. but have a 5.3 in my shed along with a set of 6.0 heads that have been shaved .20 and p&p with crane springs. i want to know if this hot cam will be good for me with this.


i have all the bolt ons except roller rockers and ud pulley and a 3200 fuddle stall(waiting to get put in). my goal is to have a truck that will run mid 8's in the 1/8 mile. any info would held thanks.

 

when i had my 4.8 i ran 8.80's and 8.90's on motor i had elec fans, headers, cold air intake, custom tune, 3000 stall, 3.42's cant wait to see what the 6.0 will run

 

my truck with 4.10 gears, cai, bbk tb, longtubes, superchips, ran a best time of 10.4 in the 1/8 mile. i know the stall helps but i think it might get me a 9.9. honestly do you think the 4.8 can reach mid 8's on motor?

still i wanna know the info on the hotcam

 

we have been playing with the gm cam & head packages on a vehicle here at the dealership. Vehicle is a 2004 Silverado SS. The results are as follows:

-15.40 stock
-15.22 with smaller 275/45R20
-14.76 tuned the same night with 26 degrees of timing @ 12.8 AFR
-13.96 with gm hot cam, 3200 midwest stall,28 degrees of timing,@ 12.5 AFR
-13.73 with the GM ASA cam (226/236 110 lsa) 30 degrees of timing, full tank of gas half of which is filled with 114 octane, & 12.9 AFR
-13.53 @ 98 mph with the addition of the GM cnc'd race LS6 61.9 cc combustion chambers with half 114 octane on an almost full gas tank with 27 degrees of timing. (the truck ran consistant et's with the afr from 11.5 - 13.1. ran best with the afr @ 12.3)

this was done over the past 4 weekends. all times were with gutted convertors & and factory manifolds. I hope this info will help.

 

Nice comparison any plans for a good exhaust that should knock off around half a second

 

My truck is "true" daily driver. I don't have a stall. I have some small surge issues that could most likely be cured with tuning, but otherwise I am happy with it. I would think in a 4.8 you better have gears, stall and some patience with tuning. IMHO,for a 4.8 dd you'd be better off with something else even if it's more money up front.

 

better to go with a another cam?? i want peformance and if that is a hard cam to tune and i can get another can for a little more what cam is good for a dd that i can get??


thanks for the info on the ss with the hotcam.

 

mid 8's on motor with 4.8???

 

I think you could get mid 8s I ran high 8s on street tires with the tailgate and bedcover on it. With a few more mods back then I think i could have runs better times. et tires help to.
