Does anybody know if the Tahoe is offered in a 6.0? I know the Yukon Denali gets one but was it even an option on Tahoes? I don't think I've heard about a Tahoe with a 6L, not from the factory anyway.

Now that I am off of the phone......The experiance that I and others have had with the GT2-3 is obvious! Yes the GT-7 might make some more power, but where in the powerband? I can only suggest going with the GT2-3 since it is the only cam that I/Magnuson have tested with.....We have one on the engine dyno now waiting to be tested as we speak. I think the 44 rwhp gain that I experianced says enough in my mind!

BTW they have 9 GT2-3's in stock right now

Did they say where in the power band? I was told 1600-6500 was the band but I dont know what it is for the GT2-3. Maybe the GT-7 has better low end tq?

I think it is interesting that the GT2-3 was supposedly developed for the Radix, and yet the person you talked with said it's 'not a blower cam.' Perhaps Lingenfelter has recently hired some Comp Cams people.

Things that make you go 'Hmm.'

and I am sure you know....not everyone is as informed as they think they are...I am sure when he calls back to speak with Tim, the conversation will be different.

I'm sure. What happened surprised me, though, considering Lingenfelter's good (and hard-earned, and well-deserved) reputation.

For some reason I think what happened will not happen again anytime soon.

Nothing specific. Just whatever you think might help. Like where you attached to the block to pull it. A pic of the front end after you get it all off. And then anything you feel a 1st timer might want to see. Thanks!

Alright headed back out to the garage Ill take a pic of it attached to the hoist and the front of the engine with the timing chain cover off. LS1Howto really does a good job of narrating the process its not hard at all.
