Love your build it’s Similar to my 03 z71. Watching your channel is making me want this cam even more.

You’ve honestly motivated me to cam my truck now hopefully it sounds as good as yours 💪

Watching that mpg go up and down is way to funny each time you get on the gas 😂😂😂

The truck lives up to its name. Keep the great work man

This video makes me feel a little better. I've got a project truck going on that will be my daily driver when it's done, with a similar setup. It's an Avalance 4×4 with a 5.3 LM7 with a TSP 220R 600/600 cam on a 112 LSA, with 1 3/4" TSP LT Headers, PRC ported/polished 799 heads milled .025, a Yank 3000 stall converter, and 4.56 gears on a 6" lift with 35s. I've daily driven the truck for 8 years on the stock motor and stock gears with the lift, and I was excited to beef it up, but a little nervous that it'd hurt the drivability. This video helps.

Oh dear lord that sounds sooo good. Good stuff! Perfect truck.

Love how you mentioned the ac stuff and what not. Tune does have to do with it and a lot don’t know that. I didn’t know it with my first cam and ended up buying an upgraded alternator😭😭

I got a 04 tahoe 5.3 with a stage 3 cam, 3k stall, volant intake, efans, 3.42s, 93 octane tune, 22s and get 11.5 mpg

Cam sounds great, makes me want to do it to my 2015 sierra gmc 6.2, I love the makeover on your truck so far 😉

You should cam Larry I have the same truck and your videos explain a lot about prices and installation your videos help a lot keep the good work up

Put a set of HiFlow Cats on the exhaust I had same set up made a huge difference on smell and hardly changed the exhaust note👍👍

Idk if you’ve done it already but you should do an equal length exhaust best sounding thing in the world for these trucks i wish i did it before i went turbo. It makes it sound like a corvette.

Just put the pulsar on my ‘17 Silverado. Love it

You should definitely do a gear swap, higher stall converter and re-tune

Hey wanted to say thanks dude I was waiting for the follow up video I have basically the same truck 05 5.3 L33 alum. Block ext. Cab 4x4 I'm soon to buy headers already got the volant cold air kit w the scoop was dead set on the truck norris camshaft until I see your videos . I too have a set of 35 12.5 r 17 tires I'm looking to run but I already got a 4.10 1500 HD rear axle so I can change the 3.42s it came w

Just want parts list, your truck sounds perfect. Got the tsp in the cart but not sure about other parts 🙏 Great Video and Info

i have a built 5.3 im gonna throw in my 95 sierra soon, sounds great man

Bro that sierra sounds amazing ngl. Loving the vids bro!!😎🤘🏼

When I cam swap my auto cars. I always add a bad ass converter 3000 stall and up. And the cam duration is always 230s and up. That with a good tune and 411/456 gears is a blast. I never ever picked a small camshaft. Most people always want more cam and a bigger converter. 230s duration cam and a 3500 stall with 410s is where it's at.

Keep up the good work 👍.

This is exactly what i was looking for i have a lifted silverado on 35s

Literally sitting in the same truck right now! mines GM silver already did the lift & tires only 12x33s tho sitting pretty on very low miles all stock thinking of doing everything you did up here in Maine would break necks !

You should do that same to Larry. That Truck deserves some love.

Ebc brakes pads/rotors will stop the 35s really well and have an amazing bite!

I have a 00 5.3 sierra and I put 373s with a true trac posi all stock aside from a flow master on 34s (275/6518) I think and I towed a Camry from cali to tn averaged 15 mpg that’s a nice rig

Definitely a tune thing mine does the same idle drops like it’s going to die then comes back to normal

But thanks for the cam follow up video on the chopocabra camshaft you rock bro North Maine Steve

sounds so good. Love the vids

i like the pov style you should do more 🔥

I got a 224/230 stage 4 on stock converter lol and 35s too and ask your tuner for towhaul mod. When you did your 30 roll the towhaul button should’ve locked you in first. Would run out so much better to if you wasn’t shifting 5500 at wot.

A tip have the truck tuned with the tires you run on. You need that load to hit those cells during the road tune😉

I think it’s very hard for a cam to make a 5.3 hard to daily, especially such a small cam like the chopacabra, and then with tires that aren’t too big like 35s I feel like it makes the truck a really good daily especially cause you can drive without thinking about crappy roads

I have a 2006 Chevy Silverado with the 5.3 with a stage 2 elgin sloppy truck cam with ls7 lifters and 600. Springs and other stuff on the top end on a 6’ lift and 35s with 3:73 gears and I agree even with mine some bigger gears it would really rip and I have a stock stall as well

I think I saw your RPO codes. "GU6" 3.42:1 Truck looks great!

Sweet sounding truck brother! I run 456 Gears in my truck.

Did you just film at the gas station to plug upside? That was well executed!

I love the sound of the engine I have the same in 6.0

Hey man u need to go put a torque converter out of a 2006 trailblazer with 4.2 in it they are only like 130.00 bucks and will bolt right in and will give u around 2700-3000 stall to help get it up in rpm and plus do 4.10 gears I'm running same set up on my 2013 5.3 and it's heads cam bolt ones and love it YOU WILL NEED NEW TUNE AFTER CONVERTER

Can't get enough chomper content!

take it to a body shop and get it paint corrected should totally go back to the smoked headlight look cause the smoked look makes it pop more

Beautiful truck man. Definitely want to cam my truck too 😎😎. Just want to know what type of transmission you have in your truck.

Love the truck man sounds great

Despite needing gears, how are you liking the same so far? Does the butt dyno notice a big power gain? It made some solid numbers for an old 5.3. I’ve been trying to sort out a cam for my z71 Tahoe. I was looking into the tsp stage 2 low lift, but this one sounds pretty wicked

That’s a good looking truck man

That's the mpg I get with a stock 5.3 with tune on 35s time to cam the truck !

They are doing my cam, headers 1 7/8, Torque converter, im putting in a high horse power drive shaft. Already has S&B intake on it. Next will be supercharger or procharger.

Put some high flow green cats and you’ll get rid of the smell your talking about. Sounds great!

That thing screams! Love it 😂

Where did u get the headlights looking for some for my 05 silverado I know off topic truck sounds great btw just ordered the same cam for mine

My 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Crew cab LS Short bed did the same thing to stalling out multiple times but my truck has no catalytic converter factory header and no tune

I need to start driving more conservatively, if you're getting 12.5 with 35s and some performance mods. Im in a 2017 silverado and on "34.5" and a leveling kit lol and only getting 11.2mpg *and I'm in Cali so the fuel prices hurt*

I’ve got the stage 3 v2 BTR cam in my 09 Silverado. It’s sounds great daily’s fine but it surges through the brakes bad and I suffer from the PRND big too.

Sound is crazy

Cam Larry dude it'll be sick

Love the vids man

I’ve got a 04 tahoe with a 228/230 Elgin cam. Built trans with a 3200 stall and 33s. Getting 10.5 avg

I never did hear what your cam rpm range is. I’ve had a carbureted truck in the past that would not hardly run with stock tc. Increased stall is mainly to improve those load dynamics cause bigger cams don’t make much low end power so allowing that to increase won’t really be something you will notice but it won’t feel so sluggish when pulling away from stop signs. Allows it to spool up a little.

4:56’s, get rid of those heavy Mud Grapperlers and get a set of Kenda Klever RT’s.

Damn that sounds mean! Love the truck!

My 01 is cammed with gears 35s and a 9 inch lift 60,000 on the build as it sits now great reliability however mpg is closer to 10

Your videos are great brother

My 02 used to do the same. It would start right up in a cold start and would stall out if someone would try to move it before letting it warm up ( I would let it warm up it was when someone else moved it cause they didn’t know what they were doing). Once it got warmed up and I turned it off at the store or whatever and I would go to start it again I would have to crank it twice for it to start. I got it retuned and starts up every time but it sometimes stalls when backing up or coming to stop in 1st gear but I think that has to do with the fact that mines drive by cable

Tune and E85 sensor and the corn will get rid of the exhaust smell

Get it tuned!!! You won't regret it!!!

Hey bro im doing the dod delete rite now with tsp choppacabra rite now on a 2009 gmc sierra

You should put some 4.56 gears in there. I swapped out my 3.55s for 4.56s on my lifted 03 ram1500 with 33x12.50s and I gained 2 mpgs and some torque.

The chomper wagon is alive😁

I about to put chopacabra on my truck today, hope sound good

Bro that’s the smell of freedom!

… they break necks. Haha!! I think the truck looks good and sounds great. Prob be a pain on the interstate… but I’d put a ton of dynamat in my next Sierra. But I got to do something ( cold air intake, exhaust, “interstate tires” ( these coopers I have are about to shake me to death… I do have traction… ) , and the trailer is about to gain some weight.

What exhaust setup do you have? Love it by the way and want to do the same to my 05 sierra

Can you get a towing video by chance? Or give me some feedback? I tow a lot as I’ve got a landscape trailer and just wondering how it acts. I’ll be pulling motor so can do convertor if needed

Them mud grapps sound so good

May have missed this in a previous video or comments, but any thoughts of swapping exhaust for a different sound.

Can you put a link to the cam and everything else you installed on the motor? Thx

my buddy has a 9 inch lift with 24's with true duals and a cam!

The comments are gold 😂😂😂 “ ima cam my truck it sounds like a beast”☠️☠️

Looking to do the same to my truck just wonder what kind of exhaust system your running

Truck sounds great man only thing you need is a 2800 circle d stall and 4:10 gears and it would be set.

4.56 and true trak is the way to go I love mine

If I knew how to send you video of my truck I have a 04 sierra z71 on 35s with s btr stage 3 cam maybe you can give some advice on what need to next. I live in winfield ,AL

Windshield tint FTW on chomper 👌🏼

A stall would help keep it in the power range, but gears will help too

You still have stock gears? That’s one thing people overlook a lot but a more aggressive gear set up with those 35s it’s a night and day difference

I'm buying a Silverado ZR2 for Overlanding. I'm thinking of Truck Norris cam. Don't care about power, just want the chopping noise and low end torque.

Question why do you use premium gas it's not like you upped your compression did the cam throw it that much out of time because premium is made do detonate later or designed to ignite later so it doesn't blow up before the piston is at top dead center

4:50 I think that’s just the motor showing age in my opinion. Just about every truck I’ve ever been in that old has done that at least once. It may have nothing to do with the motor but the tune like you said but just wanted to throw that out there for ya

Stock injectors? Have a 5.3 with tsp 1 7/8 headers and cold air intake and Holley mid rise intake and a bunch of other mods was wondering if you changed yr injectors or not got a reel of my truck if you would like to hear it

My 2012 bone stock on 33s gets about 12 in town. Has an airfilter plugs and wires. Bone stock. Im going to a torque cam in it do delete the afm. Vvt i cant decide. Waiting on opinions from BTR. Richard H. Told me to go with that cam so i assume he meant delete both.

really nice man

Cowl hood would look sick 🔥

Hey man just wondering how much 35s vs the 31s I have now it’s gonna make it slower

Could you list the specs on your cam and everything you did for it to sound like that?

What’s up with all the stickers on the inside of the windshield?

Throw some high flows on it. Should help with the smell

you should try a borla atak crate muffler I bet it would sound sick 🔥

I’m just asking what all did you get with the cam to support it? Looking to get it for my 1500

Would fuel be better with stock wheel size like mine cause it’s stock height

That scratch definitely was not there before that I remember

That thing runs out good though!
