True, but my truck that didn't run for long would've ran off on ya while it was running I just couldn't afford any more transmission swaps. Lol that **** gets expensive real quick

The only way I won't have a big cam in my truck is if I go the boost route... other than that big cams FTMFW

lol Idk why, but a lot of people know nothing about the newer LS engines for some reason and they have been out since 1998 in Fbody camaros. Not like its totally brand new either lol.

One guy thought I had a 350 also, he even asked did I have an RV cam in it.

I need to get a vid of my DMH on the new set up. The cam has a 110 Lsa. Yee-Up I think it's nasty. The truck even has a little shake to it like it's giggling.

Nice, I'll be waiting for the vid.

My truck shakes a little bit also when idling in park.

I love having a cam and my DMH cut-out. It gets plenty of attention when im driving it around.

Never really had anyone say "is it running bad?" though lol.

I hear ya, fixing **** gets old and expensive quick. After two stroker motors and I dont even remember how many transmissions I took a break for a couple years. Seems like you had to take a break too, wonder how long yours will actually stay close to stock?
