What probably held you back was your injectors. If you have stock injectors they are the limiting power factor. I made 302hp & 330lb-ft to the wheels on 33s with a 5k rpm pull maxing out my injectors. (Peak power was not reached)
The part where you had to demo it for your girl had me crying of laughter. I had to show my girl. She was dying too. We’re all the same, and some of us are lucky to have a girl who goes along with our obsessions. The face she made is exactly the face mine makes. The half smile and “I guess it sounds better?” look. Gotta love ‘em!
Whats more sleeper than mud tires? People get flustered when i bark the tires off in 1st, 2nd and damm near 3rd cuz truck looks like a contractor truck
Man I hope the feeling if it being done correctly and the feeling of it being cammed drowns out the price thank you truly for the content I love your vids man
I have an 06 cammed out, full length headers, 4.56 gears front and rear, and a 4 inch exhaust. I went thru 3 4l60e transmissions before I did a 4l80e conversion.
I commend you for doing it all right, bro! Amen! Not Carolina squatting it and not putting annoying straight pipes on a STOCK ENGINE! Very nice! Sounds great! And I actually like the stock rims better. Looks more wicked
I knew you’s from alabama when i heard that accent you got. Bad ass truck man glad to see a fellow alabamian on social media doing bad ass stuff with bad ass trucks
Sounds absolutely amazing! I’d love to do that to my ‘97 5.7l. If I had to pick which truck got boosted first, I think I’d go with the 5.0. I think that would make the biggest difference in performance once installed between the two trucks.
@@erickfirebird67 He is referring to LT4 "hot cam" from the mid-90's LT4 engines (2nd generation SBC). LS engines are still small-block chevys (3rd and 4th generation). The LT4 you're thinking of is 5th and 6th generation SBC. The LT4 "hot cam" is a common upgrade to 1st or 2nd gen SBC cams given a the rest of the valvetrain is in shape to handle it.
9:33 how much gas mileage did you lose? I’m looking at doing this to my 08 and I get 13.7mpg. I assume that I’ll get about 9 afterwards. It’s more about smiles per gallon right??
Chomp Chomp Chomp Chomper. Soooooo nice hearing a good cam in that old 5.3. I get the cost is high for something like this, that's why it's always best to try and replace as much yourself as possible. Doing a cam isn't so bad, especially if you pull the heads off (which should have been replaced tbh). I only hope that having Chomper Chomp'n all over town is worth the cost, sure puts a smile on my face as I'm sure it does yours. Keep the vids coming bud, love the content.
Yes the money is expensive, especially today… but that being said Chomper sounds absolutely incredible!! Perfect to say the least… I think you should boost the Ford! Keep up the amazing work!!
Since you are in Alabama, I'll have to show you my intake setup. 4" with card style maf to 90mm throttle. It's loud but the throttle response is crazy. I'll be throwing in a cam shortly to go with all my other bolt-ons.
That install price is insane... I do my own work because of this amd also do my own tuning. 4500 dollars for a cam and a tune is the going rate I guess. To do all that work would take a man a day in the garage. Also add a trans cooler next to save the trans. I've ran 500 hp through 4l60's many times and everyone bashes them but if you keep them cool they live.
Been looking everywhere to see what Trail Boss wheels would look like on my black 2006 Z71 Silverado and now i know that's the wheels I'm wanting for sure! Looks awesome.
Love the cam man, you should get some wheel liners foe the rear of your truck! Rough country sells them, they're under 100 bucks and makes the truck look way better. Have em on my 06 cateye
No man your price is average. If you did it right with new gaskets, lifters, oil pump, etc. You came out good. Quality parts plus warranty plus professional installation is a wonderful peace of mind. They choose parts because they have been tried and trued to work. Goodluck man.
Is that the shop in Leeds?? How much did they charge for the tuning? Got a 70 Cutlass I'm swapping the 455 out with an LSX and will need to do some dyno tuning afterwards.
A while back I saw a guy on his RUclips channel drop tons of money on different exhaust systems until he finally got the baddest sounding one and it did sound sick for a Chevy truck and if I remember right it seemed like he went with some kind of NASCAR mufflers or something.
Prices weren't bad except for the 2800 for labor way too much curious what there labor rate was per hour that should be putting you at paying for a 20-25 hrs job?
Good pick on parts and its worth it. Make sure you keep oil changes and maintain no water leaks at all. Keep oil cooler if can be done. It will help maintain performance. ❤😂🎉😅
That’s a pretty expensive cam swap. But looks like they did a good job and at the end of the day if you are happy with it, that’s all that matters. You are probably very capable of doing a cam swap on an LS. It’s fairly simple. Cam sounds good, just found your channel and I grew up very close to your Area and live in north AL now and there is a lack of speed shops here for sure.
I agree, you can do the cam swap next time! All I could think watching this was a junkyard 6.0 and a sloppy stage 2 Chinese knock off cam and re use the lifters, leave the intake and valve springs alone, and send it. Great job though, the truck sounds and runs great and you get peace of mind knowing it’s done right!
i feel you man, i installed a fast intake 92mm and a Holley 92mm throttle body on my 98 LS1 WS6 trans am and it costed around 1600$ in parts. (free labor i do my own work) then I go to a performance tuning shop and they tuned my car i spent 500$ for their dyno tune service they slap a quick tune on my car and made it run ok but it had idle issues and what not, they tell me oh its a vacuum leak, i checked every where spent 2 weeks chasing the problem down and i spent about a month trying to get a hold of the tuning place to re schedule for an adjustment they ignore me and don't respond, so i had to go to another local tuner and he had the car street tuned he is very busy so it took around 2 weeks for him to tune and diagnose my issue with my car very odd issue and had to pay another time to make it right wasn't cheap but I'm happy for now.
Does camming the truck destroy fuel economy? I have a 2003 Silverado 2500 and I am getting ready to cam. It gets 10/14 mpg. I don't care if goes down a little but don't want it to be 8/10. I used to have a Dodge Ram with a 8tlr v10 and that meant 8mpg city and 10 freeway. And the difference between 10 and 14 on the freeway is huge.
he’s gotta be the luckiest man ik i’ve never seen a girl be so supportive of a man with truck addictions
My first cammed vehicle was a 2000 sierra with a BTR stage 4 loved every second of it.
i jus put a stall in my 99 today preparing for the cam i cant ever sell it i feel like with it being my first build its too special
Had a 1990 k1500 with a 6" lift on 35's
I could see the “ i wanna floor it “ in his face!! Can’t wait to get mine cammed!!!!

The trail boss stock’s actually look very good on Chomper. Maybe put some street tires on them or some small AT’s for a sleeper setup

Good times! 🏁
I told you! That overlap FTW! It's sounding ANGRY! 😎👍
Thank you for being so honest and throwing the numbers out, great video!!
Chomper looks good with trail boss wheels
Gotta love truck guys supporting gas stations , producing the most drone out of the pipes imaginable.. g
Dude, boost Chomper. Keep building him up and see what he can do. Team Sierra
Man I hope the feeling if it being done correctly and the feeling of it being cammed drowns out the price thank you truly for the content I love your vids man
325 stock hp you mean to tell me all that 336 11hp bullbutter
You could get more hp from a wash and wax 20..00 😮
Cam swap is maybe a 7 hour job..thats 700 bucks labour. You paid 2800? Yikes.

Yo traigo algo similar y desde que trono la primer 4l60 me decidi por la 4l80 para no andas batallando❤
Did you have a tranny cooler? Thinking of camming mine and somehow keep my 4l60 lol
To each his own, I think it looks a lot better with the smaller tires
that sounds awesome man! I've never had anything cammed yet neither, I can imagine the excitement you had there on the initial start up hahah. enjoy!
BAD ASS! great job great money spent so many smiles
I’ve just watched like 4 videos in a row and commented. It’s better than streaming a show.
Chomper looks amazing with the stock trailboss wheels! Sounds amazing too!!
Sounds awesome man. I love the “hollow” sound of the pipes at idle.
I commend you for doing it all right, bro! Amen! Not Carolina squatting it and not putting annoying straight pipes on a STOCK ENGINE! Very nice! Sounds great! And I actually like the stock rims better. Looks more wicked
I’m glad your excited man. Expression was the same as mine when I had gotten my truck cammed a few years ago. Feeling was amazing.

Jesus 4k for a cam and tune that’s wild truck looks good and sounds amazing bro
That is a lot lol, down here in Houston I got quoted 1500 for cam and parts, tune maybe 500-700$
I just got quoted 5k for an afm/dod delete and a tune. Literally 3 days ago.
Becoming one of my top channels to watch
Thanks!
So much better then that piece of blue plastic that you got. Great sound , great look, great grill.
I'm having a stage 4 cammed engine with 862 heads new valves springs and ported. TBSS intake. Going to get to it! Excited
Also have a 34-3600 stall installed
Sounds absolutely amazing! I’d love to do that to my ‘97 5.7l.
If I had to pick which truck got boosted first, I think I’d go with the 5.0. I think that would make the biggest difference in performance once installed between the two trucks.
LT4 hot cam and LS6 valve springs will wake that vortec up. Mine picked up a lot with that setup
Thats an LS cam. Not a small block cam

What is your exhuast set up
That’s more than the damn trucks worth
It sounds like a mean lion when you start it! LOVE IT!
Would love to see a dragy run with the 5.0 on the mud tires vs chomper on the mud tires
The black wheels go hard with that truck
Where are you from!? That in my home town. The shop above calibrated builds custom rat rods.

Definitely more in tune with it’s name.

NOW, GO HIT IT!! 👍
Add a Magnaflow! will help for about a year after the muffler is broken in but won’t drone/clap as much
Dam that thing sounds amazing. Would be nice to cam the 2021 trailboss

Near me it’s cheaper maybe because it Texas
This channel is evolving! Talking about boost now!?! I remember when it was leveling kits, cai, and wheels and Tires! Congrats man.
i was watching some of you’re older videos and i definitely think that chomper deserves a pro charger or a turbo
I'm so glad you posted this. I've been waiting to see some videos.
In Texas, Gen 3 Silverado with the exact same cam, tune and headers installed $3,200 out the door
Idle sounds real good and we need a 07-13 Sierra or silverado on the channel
did you add a stall ???
I’ve really been thinking about camming my truck so this video helped me out. Thanks ;)
This is my fav truck you’ve built
Where’d you get the kit at I can only find bits and pieces of kits
Place I'm taking my 2010 is 2800 for parts. Dod vvt delete. Cam and heads. 2700 for labor and tune. So I'm over 5500 total.
What exhaust setup you running from the headers back? Want to get mine to sound like that love the hollow sound
An engine is just an air pump and changing the cam will allow the engine to to move more air so yes it would make it louder
You're sacrificing low end torque with that intake. Why didn't you go with a TBSS intake? Is it just for looks?
Bros channel should be bigger than this dude post nothing but good and helpful content
Damn here in Houston it’s 1k for everything kit and install included
I remember when I got my truck cammed for the first time man I was so happy 😂
Appreciate this. I have 2012 extended cab long box 2500 with the 6.0. Been wanting to do this for awhile. She's my puller.

Nasty sounding way better than my old 93. Had a wreck now she might be totalled still working it out with insurance though
