I have the same cam and same setup for the most part and
Wheatley did a great job on my tune. The tune will make all the difference in the world.

I took it out before the cam swap just to be on the safe side. Btw, so far im loving this cam! Im waiting on getting it tuned because I will have a 125 shot coming soon for it and want to get it all tuned up on the first go round'

One other thing, My rockers and my springs on the driver side where the pcv valve is was a dark bronze compared to the passenger side, the passenger side looked new, any thought as to why it might be like that. My only guess is the whole pcv valve setup in the valve cover on that side. 70,000 miles on the truck.


If you want a video of it youtube chromecreeper254 or try this link

What is the part number of the cam you installed? Did you do any head work?

No it's stock heads. The grind number is xr265Hr 114 lsa, I'm really debating on getting the Wheatley or nelson tune now, I can return the predator. Hasn't Nelson teamed up
with diablosport?

If you can go with who ever is closest so you can get a live tune for max power.

I just stopped by Wheatley's place and chatted him up for about 15 minutes (it was about 3:15pm)...he is working today.

Keep trying, Charlie will get you fixed up.

You could always hit Charlie up with a PM...when I bought some Amsoil products from him that's how I got in touch with him.

Ive been trying to call and email wheatley since monday morning??? I wonder whats going on... I wouldnt be so persistent but im going down to houston this weekend and would really like to have the tuned pcm because its about a 3 hr drive. Nelson is ready to ship but thats pointless to drive to san antonio then to houston. Any ideas of how to get ahold of wheatley other than 832-891-1798 or pm or email???

Im sure its not good to drive the truck that long on a stock tune
