Since your an auto make sure you get a stall converter. This cam surges a bit and i know if i had an auto without a stall it would suck...

Nice thread and awesome pics. Seriously, everyone needs to spend the money on a good valve spring compressor. I've used the shitty autozone clamp type, the NAPA crows foot kind, and now I have the Crane Dual Compressor. Totally worth the money and I wish I woulda gotten it first just to be done with it.

I'm curious what stall speed would work best w/ this cam...like 2800? I've got a dog 2.78 gear too. Not looking to go too radical on the TC, I still want good street manners, this is my wife's daily driven car

I have a 4k yank in mine and it drives fine day to day. Power comes on smoother too so you dont have to worry about tire spin

Go to Yanks web site i think they have a chart to match your stall with you rear gear ratio.

And as far as my set up goes right now i am loving every second of it. The car feels like a rocket ship to me right now its great. And i love the exhaust note at WOT

Trent- I'll put a few bucks in your pocket if you assist with a cam setup on my 00 C5. I bought a LS6 intake and ported TB this afternoon, and thinking about pulling the trigger on some springs, waterpump, and bump stick. Like others have said I would rather do the work on my own, but if I had someone with prior knowledge of the job around that would be great.
