- In this video you will see me swapping an old man cam for a bigger one 235/243 .621/624 113, and upgrading the valvetrain in a 2006 Corvette.

Cam swap? How about swapping the lambo doors for the regular ones.
Im not a fan from a mechanical / electrical perspective
Yeah for the love of god those things plus the chrome accents..
IKR? Those doors look absolutely disgusting lol
I am just amazed at the talent of guys that can do this......WOW!
Great work, I love the LUMPIDDY BUMPIDDY from the cam. I am surprised you are you using air tools. Todays power tools seem to be taking over. DAMNET BOBBY lol
Lol, it turned out nice. Ive got a LOT of air tools. Id like to get a few electric ones eventually. I like that milwaukee right angle impact you have.
@@CamaroRick look on offer up. Find some deals
@@chemicalspore I have a list a mile high
I have a ls2 gto, things a great sleeper, people think it's a grand prix til they hear it 😂
Id love to get one some day Love the 6.0' GTO
That thing sounds good!
Gotta love a cammed LS!
Im wondering how that early 6L80E is holding up in with the extra power?
Well Done, Rick! Been Watching Your Channel Forever, And Just Saw Your In MD! I Think I Just Found My New Technician! Do You Do Tuning Also? I Live In Bowie, Prince George's County.
I do, and if its a wild build Ive got a great dyno tuner also.
@@CamaroRick u live in PG County MD? I like your style man,u dont have a entourage around with ego issues! You do your work quietly and u are a GM lover,so am i,i too am from MD,I work on GM cars and race what's your shop number,I will be doing a 96 Impala ss LS 427 build very soon,and I currently in a project 06 GTO LS2 project!! Great videos keep them coming and I will be sure to come check u out at your shop for some of your expertise!
Im replacing my head gaskets and thinking about changing cam and lifters in my 05 automatic corvette any suggestions for dailey driver and maybe a street race on weekends?
Dumb question, when installing a cam can you knock cam bearings out of whack if you hit them with the lobes of a camshaft?
You would have to really wack it with a hammer to move them. More concerned about gouging them with a sharp edge of a cam lobe
Yes you can.
Bro did u run the stock transmission?? I just cammed my vette I’ve been told the stock transmission will go out if i don’t upgrade
Same build date as my GTO
Will the highway fuel economy be affected much after a cam?
What was the HP increase? No dyno numbers? Sounds nice
Great video Rick, did you have to remove the steering rack to get that harmonic balancer out?
Thanks! Yes its the safest way to get it out.
Did it throw a code???
What are the actual length of your lifter holder rods? They look like perfect length.
I dont recall, I got the steel rods locally and made them to that length. They have to be ground flat slightly on one side to work
What’s the cost breakdown on this
Is that considered a street cam and setup or a drag race setup? Is it durable and have good driveability?
With an auto and 3600 stall its pretty driveable. Id call it a street and strip cam. A manual it would buck a little around 1000rpm but its something you would learn how to drive around it.
The only thing good about this orange convertible corvette is the engine
What exhaust are you running? I like how it’s not crazy loud
I dont recall what exhaust was on this one. I prefer the Corsa sport or touring exhaust on these cars
Just do like me and drill a couple holes in the pipe :D little sound per hole
Did you get this done in one day ?
It was about 3 days
How much do you charge to do this?

Which corvette would you recommend the c5 or c6?
C5's are the best for value but if you have the money a C6 would be a better option stock vs stock for the updates to the engine, transmission, differential, lights, interior trim etc. The suspension and powertrain layout on both are pretty much identical. Visually I love the clean look of the popup headlight C5. They have a better drag coefficient. I love the sharp aggressive angles on the C6 also. Both are a great bargain.
@@CamaroRick do you know the 0-60 times for stock corvette c5 and c6?
@@kgetorv988 Somewhere around 4.2 seconds to 60mph LS6 C5 and LS2 C6, The LS3 is probably just under 4 seconds
Buy the most recent car you can afford.
No cam specs???
235/243 .621/624 113 degreed and chosen to match his stall converter
Too bad you're so far.
The local support keeps me busy. Ive had one customer ship his c3 to me but mostly do east coast cars
