Default Strub Technologies Trunions Installed

Replaced my Comp Cams trunions with about 4200 miles @ .661 lift with Straub Technologies trunions and bushings, which are very similar to the CHE bushings. This is on my LS7.

The Comps showed some severe wear given the low milleage. Not happy with that.

One thing that may had an effect is that Comp's are lift limited to .660, so they were at the absolute lift limit.

The Straub kits was a straight up swap, no issues with installation.

Check out some pics.

It would be interesting to see how the bushings look in 4200 miles.

I agree. I may pull 2 rockers (I/E) in about 5000 miles just to check.
