Wow thanks man, you just made this a sh ¥+ ton easier
That vinci cam is it a vvt cam ?
Do you know the max lift the gen 4s can go with stock head gasket thickness
I know these things respond well to more lift
Yeah im aiming for max torque with stock heads , at least for know its a dd and not a race truck but I do love it and cant stop moding it
Thanks for the help

im doing a cam swap in my 2012 5.3 lmg motor. im keeping the dod lifters and using blue springs from scoggin dickie. we already have #799 ls6 type heads. im running grind#689-421-13 cam with phaser limiter#5460. you will need a different timing gear if you run a three bolt cam. and you wont need a phaser limiter.
