UPDATE: Wow havent been here in a while been really busy anyways got the lift in and M/Ts on for some reason it keeps saying files too large too upload ill figure something out anyways thinking about cam and heads...any recommendations?

 

Trying to upload pics? If so, just host them elsewhere, like photobucket, or imageshack, and then link to them here. (use the image tags.)

Welcome back.

 

Thank you so much for that tip i shouldve realized that lol well here it is stock



and here it is after 2.5 spacers and blocks and 33" M/T and removal of front valence


no when it comes to more mod i want a roll bar in the bed and probably either a cam and 1.7 harland rockers or just 1.7 i dont wanna blow my tranny and im really looking for more torque then hp also that eargasmic idle ad rumble with with the rockers

 

Edited your post a bit so the pics show. I just copied the URL, clicked on the 'image' button, pasted the URL in there, and viola! instant pic.

How do you like the tires??

Good Lookin' Truck.

 

Nice truck.

Going with 1.7 rr's will NOT give you the sound you are looking for, they don't make that much difference. So a cam is in your future if sound is what you are after.

 

Buddy, just so you know, doing a cam and rockers wont work out right. From what I've been told on DF before, the rockers keep the valves open slightly longer, which has the same effect as a cam, or something like that. You do one or the other, not both. But that's just what I was told, Im just an auto student, no expert lol

 

and where did you hear, or read this info? it is COMPLETELY wrong! im running both, and have had zero problems. running both just makes it act like an even bigger cam, which means more powah!

 

If you PLAN for the 1.7 ratio rockers when choosing your cam, they can play very nicely together. Just gotta watch lift numbers as opposed to what your valve springs will tolerate. The higher ratio rockers increase duration at .050 in. lift, and give you a bit more lift as well. (valve open further) The same could be accomplished by using 1.6 ratio rockers, and a slightly larger cam...... Which is actually the preferred method. (the higher ratio requires more energy to make 'em open the valve.) But, if you can't find the cam you are really looking for.... it is a viable combination.

 

Thank you, and the tires are nice a bit noisy on the road but doesnt bother me too much.

 

I see, so i see yours says built 5.9 what did you do to yours? i literally want that nice old school muscle car rumble and idle. and wanna do the sct 9550 but none are available anywhere and ive been waiting for the x3. What cam would you reccomend
