Thanks, the rev limiter is set a 6700 rpm

@@eldrewski7597 In my opinion I think it sets a little bit high

@@amgreen1894 hi for wh

Thanks

Thanks bud👍

Thanks buddy

Thats good. You won't regret it. It gives you plenty of power without sacrificing low end torque

EL DREWSKI how is it for a daily? I want a to put a cam on my fbo 4.8 it has a 2800 stall. I don’t mind the bad gas mileage but is it reliable?

Very reliable. I think its perfect for a daily Its almost as if you don't have a cam at all, till you put your foot to the floor. My gas mileage really didn't change to much either.

Was looking up this video to get a general idea of how it will sound, cams and a vortec v3 supercharger on the way for my tahoe

Thanks👍

Thank 👍

Thanks. Believe me it sounded a lot better in person 👍

How much is its price with installation?

@@abdulelahgh4220 i paid $1700 for everything

I think they did, I'm not 100% sure. I had the work done at a shop

If you don't mill the heads you can reuse everything

Cut 30tho of the heads and get a custom tune that's were the power is at

My thoughts are if you are gonna tear into the motor, do it right. Cam, lifters, rockers, pushrods, and I’d go one step further and get a matched torque converter and a custom tune on the computer. But why stop there? Now it needs to breathe better so give it some long tube headers and a bigger throttle body and if any money remains put a full lockup (electronic activated) gear in the rear. Worlds ending right? Why not go big!

@@leeburks3048 yes absolutely agree. But! Beware shaved heads increase compression but will also run hotter. So octane boost is a must

That and a good tune

Actually i think my next mod is going to be a stall converter and some good race tires

EL DREWSKI pick a small converter because if your transmission is old it’s gonna make you get a rebuild quick ask me how I know in my opinion rear gears make a big difference and will help at all speeds especially with big tires stalls are awesome but if your trans isn’t built it’ gonna ruin your transmission quick

Thanks for the advice. I was thinking of getting a 2800 or 3000 rpm stall converter so i don't think its too big.

EL DREWSKI I got a 3600 installed in my stock 4l60 e and it hauled ass with the same cam you have tuned and 410 gears my camaro dynoed 350hp 350tq to the wheels but my 3/4 clutch packs burt up in two months and I didn’t raise shift pressure or anything

@@utahcountypicazospage5412 those are some good numbers👍

Mine is a flex fuel so it has bigger injectors from factory and my tune is a custom hp tuners tune.

I put the high volume pump

Factory 3.42

It does great. It drives around as if it was stock it just idles a little higher than normal.

EL DREWSKI oh man I need that setup.

Do you have a stall and if so which one?

@@84_curt its the factory 4l60 converter

Stage 2 cam, LS7 lifters, hardened push rods and springs

For now i am. I want to upgrade to maybe a 2800 stall

A 93 octane performance tune

@@eldrewski7597 as in a canned tune or did you get a custom tune done, with data pulled after the swap? I ask because i wonder about this same cam and how it idles after installation. Nobody around me does dyno tuning. All i have access to is diablo tuning.

@@Notmyname-co5sc a custom tune done on hp tuners by a local shop

Check out tsp or Brian tooley racing . Or summit for the cheaper kit with a Holley cam and everything needed. Double or single valve spring kits were not bad

I hadn't heard it since i had removed the exhaust. When i was using the truck earlier it still had the full exhaust on.

@@eldrewski7597 I think most of us understood exactly what you meant. Some need explaining

Clown...

I think it was set to 800

Cold air intake, stage 2 high lift texas speed cam, melling oil pump, ls7 lifters hardened push rods, valve springs, headers and a hp tuners custom performance tune.👍

About 6700 to 6800 rpm

That should do it. Mine is stage 2 cam, LS7 lifters, hardened push rods and springs, headers, full 3.5 inch exhaust cold air intake and a performance tune.

@@eldrewski7597 I was thinking I had to do lifters and rods. Is it fully necessary?? It makes sense if so I always have exhaust done and cold are. I was going to go with "torque" truck cam

@@dominiquewilliams2559 it depends on the size of the cam. If its a small lift cam you can still use the stock stuff if its a high lift cam then you need to upgrade. I upgraded mine because its a .600 high lift cam.

@@eldrewski7597 understood. Not sure of i want to loose that much top end. Just want enough bottom to burn plenty rubber even with heavy tires

@@dominiquewilliams2559 in that case all you need is a good stall converter and you'll burn rubber like an Australian lol

I went to josh LSX performance tuning, its a shop in Mission Texas.

Tahoe 5.3, Tsp stage 2 high lift cam, LS7 lifters, hardened push rods, stronger springs, cold air intake, speed engineering headers, aftermarket melling oil pump and race tune. cam specs: 212 218 duration. 600. 600. lift 112 lsa

Is it the stock converter

It's the factory limited slip (not the G80) and stock 4l60.

Not with this cam because it is a hi lift cam. They do have this cam in a low lift version for use with stock springs and push rods

@@eldrewski7597 what type of spring and push rods are you running?

Ok nevermind i found it on the website thanks bro

With the open exhaust like this it is very loud and obnoxious but with my full exhaust on its not bad at all till you put the pedal to the floor. 👍

I'm honestly not sure. I had my installed by a local performance shop

I use an air hose in the plug holes to keep the valves from falling in the cylinder

@@88luciootell me what u mean

@@tennesseesyndicate5337 If you take your spark plugs out, you can pressurize the cylinder cavity with air (from a compressor applying constant pressure), so when you remove the rings atop the springs (effectively disconnecting from the valve), the air pressure in the cylinder cavity will keep the valves pushed up against the head. If you didn't do that (while the head was on the block), when you release the spring, the valve would fall down onto the piston head. If your piston was at TDC, I think you could pull it back up, but I've personally never done that before, so I couldn't say for sure.

Probably around 450 crank. Thats more or less 340 wheel horsepower

Not sure. Im going to say about 14-15 mpg

Mine is just 2wd

Stock diff and stock 4l60

@@eldrewski7597 do you have a g80 locker? If you do, careful doing burnout as it may fail 😂. I'm surprised they are holding the power 💪👌

No my truck didn't come with a g80. It has a stock limited slip with factory 3.42 gears

It's only 2wd.

Yeah. I'm just afraid of blowing my 4l60 lol

They are tsp headers 1 3/4 inch inlets with 3 inch collectors welded to the factory y pipe. The flange that i unbolted is where the y pipe connects with the rest of the exhaust. These tsp headers work great and were very easy to install i highly recommend them.👍

@@eldrewski7597 no cracks yet? Are you tuned?

@@yooooscar4903 no, no cracks. Yes i am tuned. I got my truck tuned by josh. A reputable shop about 45 minutes from where i live. He does really good work.

@@eldrewski7597 how much did it cost you to get it tuned?

@@ethanbittle5063 about 250

No, i just unbolted it at the flange right behind the y pipe. It's only 2 bolts that way i could bolt it back on after the video.

EL DREWSKI ohhhh ok I have an 88 Cheyenne and ima get a camm at tsp, I work there bro. I’m doing my swap rn and mine has no muffler but ima just make a custom one for it. That Tahoe sounds badass bro it’s quick

Nice. Do you get an employee discount there lol? Does your truck have a LS motor or is it the original 305/350?

EL DREWSKI yea I do lol, it had a 350 in it, dropping in the LS Saturday

Must be nice getting a discount at texas speed. If i had a texas speed discount i would probably do a full Texas speed and performance everything build. That would be awesome.

Its the stock factory torque converter

@@eldrewski7597 bro I have a gmc 2011 with stock converter can I put the hi lift 212 218 tsp cam

You sure can bro. Thats what i have in my truck and it works just fine as you can see 👍

@@eldrewski7597 was it tuned in the video

@@CLPOZ yes it was.

@@eldrewski7597 how much the tune cost ya

@@CLPOZ regular price is $200 but i got it free with the purchase of the cam and the installation.

Those are my stock wheels

I'm not sure it's never been on a dyno but I'm going to say probably about 330 - 350 wheel horsepower.

@@eldrewski7597 I dyno'd my 2005 5.3 hoe when it was bone-stock and it made 230 wheel. those 5.3's are well known to make about 350 at the crank with no accessories driven, which means drivetrain + accessory losses = about 120 HP. WIth headers, tune and that cam you are probably at 400-410 crank which puts your wheel HP at about 280-290. Maybe 300-310, but I'd be very very surprised if it did more than that. You should get it dyno'd!

@@Heathfx5 you are probably correct, like i said I've never had it on a dyno but my tahoe moves out better than some other trucks with bigger cams. I'll try to get it on a dyno some day and post the results.👍

All in time my friend 👍

Lol yes thank you for correcting me

That little honda runs 14s in the 1/4. A stock tahoe runs a 16.5. I think i did fairly well

Yeah i know but that little honda is quick. Honda should run about a 13.8 - 14.2 and a stock tahoe runs about a 16.4 so it really didn't do too bad. I'll post videos later racing some trucks for a better comparison. 👍
