Anybody here done a cam install on the new Silverado SS? I've done several f-body cam installs and I'm just wondering what the difference in difficulty was if there is one. Are there any installation write ups out there? Anyways, let me know if ya'll know anything.

Thanks,

Vince

the truck cam installs are prety simple. if you have done a car you can do this. it is the same thing but you have more room.

This could be helpfull. Fron what I hear, its easier on our truck since you have a lot of room to work with.

BigTex has done it in his SS, Bare Handed with no directions He seems pretty happy with the performance improvements. Mabey he will chime in.

A couple of us on the SilveradoSS forum have put cams in ours and everyone I know of used the LS1Howto F-body article as a reference. Pretty easy install.

I tried to write this up in a fair amount of detail about a month ago https://ls1tech.com/forums/showpost....62&postcount=4. I'm using the same as slimsoftball and Gonzo 6.0 in my 2000 Yukon XL with the LQ4 6.0 Liter. It's a great cam. You need to change the springs and retainers too.

I'm installing a lunati camshaft in it. The specs are:
221/221 .558/.558 114

The valve springs are Comp part # 26-918-16

Do these trucks use the same length pushrods as what the LS1 Camaro/TA's use (7.4")?

Steve- That's a good write up. Did you ever get that volant intake?

Thanks for all the help guys!
