cam is in!

[LEO]

well went to matt's (tootall) house yesterday to get the cam swapped into the silverado.
got started a little after 10am and finished around 630-700pm.
we had a few hiccups but got through them.
one was the lifters wouldn't stay so we had to go to the store and pick up some 5/16" dia dowels.
second was the belt that i bought didn't fit.
it was too small.
i went off of ASP's website for the part #'s and didn't realize that the paper in that came w/ the pullies had different numbers.
so we had to make a run for autozone to exchange the one i had.
after that, everything was pretty much done.
i will have to say, that crane spring compressor tool is awesome and a must have if you plan on doing a lot of cam swaps.
i have a sound clip on my phone but it sounds shitty.
i know matt got some so maybe he'll post'em.

so......... how do you like it?

[LEO]

i don't have it tuned yet so i wasn't able to really get on it but i like it.
it's a lot choppier than what i thought it would be but i think when it gets tuned, that'll change.

[BBLS!]

Sweet!!1

Now time for a stall!!!

[Luke03]

Nice LEO!!! Let us know how you like it after you get it tuned!!

[LEO]

Now time for a stall!!!
you think i should get that before i get headers?

Nice LEO!!! Let us know how you like it after you get it tuned!!

will do luke!

[ChevydreamZ]

I would do stall before headers personally.

[texastahoe]

sounds good man, can't wait to see the video:D

[TooTall]

get headers first . . . then a stall and the shift kit . . . . and please . . . change the tranny fluid !


I'll bet that you're glad to have that cam in finally ! . . . looked brand new for something sitting in a box for a year.

This was my first cam swap where there were more than 1-2 lifters wouldn't stay up on their own. Get that sucker tuned ! . . . it's really lean as it is right now . . .

[Luke03]

a stall would do wonders... you would notice more of a difference with a stall than headers but... both make BIG differences with a cam. You are going to have to eventually have both of em

[SlvrSierra]

Congrats man, should be alot stronger now. When you gettin the re-tune?

[LEO]

thanks everybody on your input on what i should try to do next.:)

Congrats man, should be alot stronger now. When you gettin the re-tune?
