broke1 Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 I know this forum is kind of dead but I also know Silverado SS guys know a thing or 2 about getting a heavy truck to lay down some ETs? Truck is a heavy AWD Escalade EXT....nv149/built 4l65 w/ PTC built TB stall,3.73 gears.Engine setup is: Gen 4 iron 6.2 (.065 over 6.0) 216/224 .551/.551 114+4 Howards cam(Vinci/Crane knock off) Advanced induction 226cc ported 799s Ls9 hesdgaskets w/ ARP Head bolts 11.3:1 compression w/ stock ls3 hyper pisons(I plan on running e85 and meth injection) Long tube headers and Corsa Touring(I know I need to get a true dual exhaust) ATI 4% is balancer All other bolt ons and good stuff And a MP112 w/ upgraded HE,upgraded 100mm idlers,HD tensioner,90mm J tube,etc. The reason for the high compression is I never planned on any kind of power adder(I know) but I ran up on a deal on a polished mp112 kit I couldnt pass up so here I am. Ive read a lot about the Lingenfelter GT2-3 cams(207/220 on a 118.5) holding the ET record when paired with a mp112 in a Silverado SS. The current cam is very mild in the 6.2 and peaks around 5800rpm. Will I really be giving up that much or anything not running the gt2-3? Im thinking the gains/driveability between the 2 would be minimal and Id be better off spending the $$$ on a dual exhaust setup like Speed Engineering sells.... I know I will be very limited on boost/timing so the right cam will be even more important. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12secss e.mack Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 (edited) I had both and the VINCI CAM gave me the most gain....I have a VINCI cam in my truck now with my TVS2300 running 10.6 in 1/4 mile....I would call VINCI tell him what you have and he will tell you what you need ,He will then cut you a custom cam at no extra cost .
