I need some help choosing a cam, 2006 Silverado 4.8 CCSB - HPTuned, LPP Longtubes, 3" Single Dumped W/ Magnaflow, S&B CAI, 4.56's, 3200 stall

 

thats alot of gear. but it really depends on what you want to do with the truck. overall i would go with the tr220 on a 112. it will perform great and sound aggressive aswell.

 

I'd go with a Isky 212/215, .561/.566, 108 lsa. It will sound good, and make good mid range tq to move that heavy cc. If you're wanting better milage, and smoother idle there is the 210/214, .532'', 110*

 

Can't go wrong with a tr220, it's a proven cam. What are you wanting out of the cam and goals for the truck? A little more power for towing or the street? Drag racing?

 

I want to give the truck some pep, its got a dead spot from 72-80 and out the hole, so I want some tq low and something to complement the high end this motor has. Can I tow with a 10" 3200 stall? If so what can I pull?

 

Also do you have to pull the heads to change lifters? If so I guess it will get some ported 706's

 

I'm not a converter expert, but I would think you could still tow a decent amount. A transmission cooler would not be a bad idea.

Also, try using the search feature. There are a lot of cam threads on here to help you get a better idea on what would work for you.

 

I would go no smaller than an 11" (278mm) converter to tow with, and an aux. cooler is an absolute must if you're going to tow with a verter. Shoot a message to Chris@CircleD and ask him, but I think he'll agree. You will lose a small bit of low end with 220, but I doubt it will be noticable... and you'll blow by 80MPH fast enough that you'll forget there was ever a dead spot there. That's the same reason I got my cam, it seemd to fall on it's face at about 75. Not anymore though

 

Check out eps cams. They lap thunder and tsp cams

 

If you decide on something around 220/220, let me know. I have a 218/222 that i had in a 5.3 CC. It pulled great.
