Wow. ... u must really love that truck.... thats pretty cool.... im bout to vemture down the same path with stanley.... my very gokd lookin silverado ... he sat for 3 years almost
Cool. Wow you guys did it. that's cool that you guys did that together as a couple. I have a 2000 Chevy Tahoe and my wife has a 2001 GMC Yukon we are always adding something. Now I want to cam mine and add a turbo kit. We are also in Vegas. Your home is nice. We are hopefully buying our first new home this year.
My husband and I are both very into vehicles! It's fun to have the same interests and be able to work on vehicles together! The Sierra is my baby, the Focus ST is technically my husband's, and now we have another vehicle that's going to be announced soon. Turbos are cool. I'm more into superchargers and would love to have one on my truck. And thank you! Good luck with the home buying process!
Thank you so much! I have a video after we got the tune done. I can post it below. I no longer have the resonator on her, so she's a little louder but still sounds good! Updated Cam After Tune - ruclips.net/video/bKlP1SUv9Ic/видео.html
sounds great you lucky though you should have never started that truck with out a tune with out at least pluging in the old vally pan unless first start up was after the tune
Hey there fellow Hoosier, love the video. So it looks like it’s been a while now, so how are you liking the Truck Norris? That’s what my son and I are leaning towards putting in to our 2004 Silverado. Can’t wait to hear what you think about it. Thanks
I might be biased, but I absolutely love it! I think for what we needed, and also what my truck might be hauling, it was the perfect option. The chop is great, in my opinion! After the tune, she really came alive and sounded so much better. I have a video on the "before & after tune" that I can link. (ruclips.net/video/bKlP1SUv9Ic/видео.html) And also a drivability video: (ruclips.net/video/uQNjL8zNJFY/видео.html) I've had a lot of compliments on how she sounds, and also people asking about the specific cam and specs. I have no complaints at all with what we did!
Thank you, and no. It's the angle with the protective coating that's flaking off and rusted. Not too many months ago, we traveled to Arizona to get a rust free bed. We ended up driving the five hours one way without a bed on my truck, so the night prior we checked over my frame and everything else that's rusted and original. Her frame is still "perfect", minus the rust.
Thank you! And yes, I did! I do have headers, new plugs and wires, and no matter what, I needed a tune because of putting that cam in. So between all that we did to her, yes she had a lot more pep in her step.
I hope y'all enjoyed this video! Thank you so much for the almost 500 subscribers! Be sure to look back on any of my past vehicle videos for more detailing, headers install, exhaust setups before and after cam and tune, and more! The link to my playlist is in the description box. 😊
In all honesty, since we did the headers and had to drop my pan around the time we did my DOD delete because of a stuck dipstick tube, we worked around the oil pump. We never took it off. We didn't want to have to redo the oil pan, again.

They took all my truck information and built a kit based on what we needed/wanted. It took a day for the information to get back with us, and maybe a week to receive everything.
I had a tune done. I posted this video before the tune, because the local tuner we went to couldn't take my truck for a few weeks. Here's the video I posted after the tune. (It is only sound clips.) ⤵️ ruclips.net/video/bKlP1SUv9Ic/видео.htmlsi=EKXRW-erkKKe7QHb
Fine job...I'm doing it !! Fk it...been debating on it for my 07 Tahoe ...has a stuck lifter...seems pretty straightforward....glad I can keep converter in.... thanks...
Yes, the truck will not run right without a tune. Here's my "before & after tune" sound video ⤵️ ruclips.net/video/bKlP1SUv9Ic/видео.htmlsi=VHKesnygfTiGa3I5 Also my drivability video ⤵️ ruclips.net/video/uQNjL8zNJFY/видео.htmlsi=Q8v0ESEFg-cUr7kB
We spent $1,800-2,000 on everything. But that included the Speed Engineering Headers, BTR's personalized DOD delete kit for my truck, Truck Norris Cam, and random things like gaskets from O'Reilly. So depending on what you want to do, I would have anywhere from $1,500-2,500 saved up (as long as you are doing it yourself).
We did tune my truck locally. That was an extra $500 for a street tune, since my truck couldn't fit on his dyno. The price for tuning will vary depending on how and who tunes it. So sorry, technically we spent $2,500 max on the full DOD, headers, etc.
I had drone because my Flowmasters and then when we switched to the Black Widow exhaust, dumped off after my cab. Originally, my Super 10's I had, had dumped after the cab and were pointed to the ground. We went to a junk yard and pulled the rest of the exhaust off a 2007 Tahoe, and put that on my truck. I now have a resonator, along with factory length exhaust, and no drone in the cab.
@@JuliaM987 could you do a video of the new set up? Would love to see how it sounds. Going a truck norris cam and long tube on my 08 escalade still staying to determine muffler and resenator set up
@@JuliaM987 I installed one also reused my stocks and I’m thinking their to short since the cam kit comes with 7.4 and oem are 7.39 how are your brakes I lose vacuum at idle
We had to bump up my rpm at idle to 750, when we got my truck professionally tuned. I had some issues with her stalling out and poor breaks before my tune.

I don’t see a change at all. Honestly, I’m getting around 12-15 mpg for everyday city driving and maybe anywhere from 18-20 mpg when actually traveling on the expressway/highway. The only thing is honestly, we are stationed in Vegas. So it’s 100+ degrees and I have my AC always on and semi high because of our son in the backseat. The traffic here is also absolute trash, and I can sit for an hour or so in stopped traffic. And lastly, I haven’t “drove like a grandpa” since adding the headers and cam. I like the way my truck sounds, and I merge/drive like it. I maybe don’t drive like that every single time, but more than not, so I’m not being nice to my miles per gallons, either. It truly all depends on where you are at and what your daily commute looks like. I’m sure if we weren’t out here in the desert and city, I would be around 15-18 mpg for daily and back to my 20-23 mpg for highways. In all honesty, I don’t even worry about my mpg because I came from my ‘91 Cheyenne before my Sierra. I was lucky to hit 10 mpg in that truck, but I hope this helps a little. I’m sorry, I’m not a good example for you.
News flash, this is my channel and my video. I made two separate videos and put timestamps on both of them. This video was the installation and talking about everything, hence the title ... the other video is just sound clips before and after tune. If you have a problem with how I made MY video, then go watch someone else's or look at my other one that only has sound clips. There's a reason I make two. Also, have more respect as an adult.

yes but you can drive it with just pluging in the old valley cover
Did ur Truck Norris cam have 1 bolt or 3?
How about your original cam?
Truck Norris Cam has 3 bolts, but I also needed to buy the 3 bolt cam gear.
The original cam is a single bolt.
So a new cam sprocket is needed for the 07-13 5.3 trucks?
Yes, it is needed. With my cam specifically, I went from a single bolt cam to a three bolt one, so I needed a different sprocket.
@@JuliaM987 that's what I was thinking as well. Working up a list for my 09.
I hope you can get your list and all the parts in, and everything runs and sounds great for you!
I really wanna do this to my Yukon - what something like this cost? I'm interested

@@JuliaM987 did it have to be tuned afterwards? some say it's recommended & some say it's not necessary

Did you get a lot of valve train noise after installing the cam?
No, I did not.
How much louder is it in the cab? Any drone noise?
I had drone because my Flowmasters and then when we switched to the Black Widow exhaust, dumped off after my cab. Originally, my Super 10's I had, had dumped after the cab and were pointed to the ground. We went to a junk yard and pulled the rest of the exhaust off a 2007 Tahoe, and put that on my truck.

@@zekeprause5606 Just the stock one that was attached to the 2007 Tahoe exhaust we pulled to make it full length, again.
