Very nice man!!!! Soon I will have one too, gotta get some traction and control issues taken care of first though and then it'll be time to play. Post pics... Lots and lots of pics. Also would be a great time to put on the headers since the heads will be off the truck if you have them and can do them too. Good luck man, I would love to help if I could!!

DOH!! Yep, i got those lights. I meant to PM you but Ive ordered a lot recently and its rough keeping up. Ill do lots of pics but there are already a few write-ups for cam changes and I wont be pulling the heads to change the cam.

LTs wont go on until after the first of the year now I guess. I keep spending the money on everything else.

heads don't need to come off to get the cam. got enough room ahead of the motor (after pulling some stuff off) to pull the cam straight out

Weed are you doing any other internal work like springs and push rods?

I asked about the heads cause thats the way my installer does the cams and other internal work.

if you take the valvecovers off you can get to the springs with one of those little over the top compressors. can pull the pushrods right out too. slip says the cam requires springs.

hey weed, if you got datalogging, take some numbers before and after. 0-60 and such.
