yeah, I had to 'clean' up the PB account.....I have everything on disc, like 80gb or so

I only gained ~10/10 going from the shortys but at the track had better results with the long tubes.

Do they work for the 2007 Avalanche 4WD? PS website doesn't indicate a model that works. Can someone confirm?

I would need a y Pipe.

Thanks for the advice guys! I love this forum already. ChevyClubAvalanche is a ghost town.

Check out two other Avalanche forums:

http://www.chevyavalanchefanclub.com

The first one is smaller but more friendly. The second one is the original Avalanche forum. Both have performance information there. There's lots of modded Avalanches around.

BTW, I'm going with a cam with the same specs as the Vinci Trucker - 216-224/.551-.551/115 lsa. I found a used one for a reasonable price. It was on my short list of about 3 cams - the Lingenfelter GT7 was the second and a Texas Speed & Performance was the last (230 exhaust duration &, I believe, .56X lift). I had originally looked at the GT2-3 but decided against it. I figured if you were going to the time & expense to change the cam that you should go a little larger than you thought you wanted. I see many people lamenting their original cam choice as not being big enough.

Here are some additional supercharger cams from a reputable cam manufacturer. I wish I had seen this list before I made my cam choice. Something for everyone here.

I can hardly wait. I rode in an Avalanche on Labor Day weekend that only had the cam in it. The damn thing started pulling like a freight train right where my Maggied truck starts dropping off - about 4k. I think the cam is really going to wake the Maggie up, pretty much from idle up. I'll be raising my shift points some also.
