Thats awesome, I am glad that you are finally able to get a cam in there. It has been too long waiting for you to get one.

You will love the LT's if you decide to get a set. Very nice boost in performance.

Let me know how the roll pan goes when you install it. I just ordered a new one (since the first one they shipped was damaged) and am curious how involved the install is.

You think just like me, what's next. The next thing on the list is a
torque converter. After that, who knows?

if you bolt it on it is pretty basic. just be sure to get one on either side on the bottom to the truck for extra support. i have had every one i have had welded on, i just think it looks cleaner. i have been quoted 600.00 at some of the higher end shops in the past to mold it in and paint it. but i know a few welders and usually get it welded in for free and just have it painted. for a drop off painting just for the pan if you are bolting it on 100.00 seems to be the going rate. make sure to install it and get it all aligned before you get it it painted to minimize scratching

and teach i am getting the lt's no ceramic coating though. i dont think i will need it here in the bible belt. not a whole lot of salt or rust problems down here. i just want the exterior and interior done before i concentrate on performance. its almost there
