Keeping it streetable/haulable. Mild converter. Still debating on gears. I think I may go with a 4.10. Thinking a 212/218 Comp High Lift. I know it will be a small cam for the 6.0. But should have nice low end.

 

I'd go a tad bigger because as you mentioned, cubes eat cams. IIRC, NicD posted dyno graphs of a 216/224 (like the Vinci Trucker) in a 6.0, and it had about the same powerband as a 212/218 in a 5.3, only with bigger numbers. You could match that cam with a 2600 converter and have a totally streetable, stealthy, LQ9. With good tuning, you won't even know that cam is in there. I was planning that same combo, with 3.73's, until I decided that I wanted a 220/224, 3k converter, with 4.10's, which now has grown into a 224/230, 3200ish converter, still 4.10's lol. Any one of those combos will be streetable to me, IMO, but what is considered streetable to one guy may be a PITA to another

 

That 216/224 sounds like a decent choice to me..

Good work by the way..

WAITING FOR BURNOUT VIDS!!!

 

I was looking at the Vinci Trucker. I think may just go that direction. Stealthy is a nice way to go

Thanks!

Oh, and don't worry, there will be burnout vids

 

218/222 come to irwindale tonight and we can talk about whos running that

 

Might have to try and run out there too...

 

Gonna try to get over there tonight. I have to get some stuff done before. Won't be running if I do. Did you ever find the part number on those Mahles?

 

Dan (DV2000NJ) is running a cam with similar specs to the Vinci Trucker, just a little more lift and ground on a 114 vs. the Trucker's 115...can't remember if he's running a TT2600 or 3k though. Hit him up in a PM or check out some of his old posts and I'm sure that you'll find some good info about it. I know that he's very happy with his setup.

I spoke with Roger Vinci a while back, who talked me into this cam (which I bought, and then sold to help fund my FLT Lvl7 65E), and he was positive that I would have been happy with it in a daily driven LQ9 scenario. He runs that same cam in his DD 5.3 (RCSB I believe), with a TT2600.

 

Awesome. I'm going to look into this cam a little more. I'm looking at a Yank TT2600. There is one for sale on here and I want to pick it up, but I'm waiting on pay day... I think that converter will be nice.

 

You won't even know that converter is there until you punch it...I drove tdrumm's 5.3 powered rcsb with a Vinci 210/218 .551/.551 112, 4.10's and a TT3000 and loved the way that converter reacted. Normal driving was pretty much like stock, but when I mashed the go pedal the tach jumped right to 3k I feel that the TT2600 would be a perfect match for the Trucker in a 6.0, and Roger Vinci confirmed my assumption
