HaulinBass02---let me know what cam your running when you get it. I would appreciate all the info on it. I was reading through the GMC forums and was advised that a cam really does wake up this engine.. And you right the TQ management is just annoying....
The one I'm looking at getting is from Texas Speed and Performance. It is a low-lift VVT cam. I think your truck will have the Variable Valve Timing too. It is a great thing with the right VVT cam in the hands of a capable tuner.
TSP VVT-1 camOur heavier duty vehicles don't have the Active Fuel Management like the 1/2 tons so we don't need the AFM delete kit. You WILL need the VVT Phaser limiter kit as well as dual springs, pushrods, phaser and install kit to do it right. Their gains, once properly tuned are in the neighborhood of 70 RWHP and 10 RWTQ. Not a lot of torque but in the powerband in the midrange we gain quite a bit of HP. Gearing will help with the acceleration and the cam will help keep it rolling.
All cheaper than a D-max, although, I've been contemplating doing a Duramax conversion on my Sub......
