im lookin to buy a cam for the truck... im full bolt on's minus a converter... i'm gunna stay N/A so i want a good cam to work with. o yeah it needs to have good street manners ... i need ideas

any help from anybody very appreciated

 

not that you asked me, but why not go with what's proven to work? A tr220 or tr224 with a 3k or 3200 stall would really get your truck moving. BlueCajun is running the tr220, but I'm sure you already knew that.

 

I would custom grind a comp cam 220/220, thats the one I used to have on my ECSB and ran some good numbers, alot of people are getting this cam for the 5.3... oh and it has great street manners.. I know alot of people from the valley that use this cam as well and running very well...

 

i just figured they knew what worked good cause they're two of the quickest 5.3 n/a scsb trucks... im takin any suggestions because im cam stupid and need help

this is what im lookin at... do i need springs and retainers with this?

 

anything with that high of a lift you'll need spings... 918's will suffice

i beleive that is the same cam i have... in the 4.8 it has pretty good street manners and idle.. i have it idleing at 750 and it could be lower if i want

 

oh and a 3000+ converter would probably be good with this... its not fun having no low end, beleive me, lol

 

will Ls6 springs work

 

i think ls6 springs are only good til .550 lift

 

You need 918s or better for that cam
