Here is my 6 (almost 7) year build transformation on the Chevy SS, aka Holden Commodore. I've had so much fun modifying this car and meeting all new people I've been introduced to simply because of the love we all have for cars. Thanks to those that have followed the build recently. I hope to share with y'all more of what this car went through before I became more active on RU-vid. If you enjoyed this video, please make sure to Like, Share, and Subscribe, if you aren't already!

I have an 2008 VE SS and 2015 VF SSV. Both are manuals. The VE is a stock L98 6 litre that has been lowered 35 mm. The VF SSV is such an improved model over my VE in many respects...It is brilliant to drive.... My VF SSV has a 6 litre L77 ..... lightly cammed, ported and polished with a DOD delete. OTR and 2.5 inch stainless Manta exhaust with 1 3/4 ceramic coated headers. Brembos all round with braided lines. Lowered slightly, about 20 mm and made to sit evenly on the 19 inch Continental Max Contact MC6 tyres...... What I wanted was a car that was not an automatic police magnet.... 317.5 RWKW and 645 nm of Torque. People come up and talk to me all the time when the see my VF SSV.... they like how it sounds...the performance shop wanted to put a 3 inch exhaust system on it... but where I live in Australia there is a noise limit... and large fines. The 2.5 system doesn't look as obvious..... and it only exceeds the limit by about 10 to 15 db. Stock standard, the VE still has plenty of get up and go for passing semi trailers and road trains. The VE feels like it sits lower on its 18 inch Continental Max Contact MC6 tyres.

Hey bud my ss is a 2014 I have only 1300 miles on it I'm gone put a BTR stage 3 cam in it would you change the lifters or leave them alone.and do you thank that cam will be ok
@LosSS
@LosSS Год назад
It all depends on what your end goal is. A BTR stage 3 cam might not be so friendly with a stock torque converter, you'll probably need a higher stall. If you ever plan on going boosted in the near future, I would go with a boost cam and a zl1/ctsv converter, otherwise get the supporting mods for the BTR Stage 3 cam. Regarding lifters, yes I do recommend them changing up. IMO, go with the Johnson lifters. Also, make sure to do a trunnion kit like the one from CHE and appropriate springs like dual springs depending on the cam lift. Oil pump also if you can while you are add it. A "cam kit" is not everything, there are addition supporting mods that goes with doing a full cam swap.

I have a white one too. Mine just got to the shop thats finally going to fix it. Its been a lemon pretty much. maybe ill finally get to see this car not suck soon. long story short afm is terrible and shouldnt be ruining cars. rocker arm trunnion needle bearings, collapsed lifters, and the lie that is l99. All ima say is ima try to sue GM. owning one of these since may 2021 has been a sad experience. Mine came with a cam, an exhaust system, a rotofab, and a tune. they didnt upgrade the lifters or rocker arm trunnion needle bearing shit. 30k miles later, 4-8k in repairs for a valvetrain defect so cleverly disguised as engine code numbers that when u realize this car in its automatic form is afm vvt infected, i would have gotten this car much cheaper than what they charged me. oh and i have a warranty on the engine from the dealer till 2025 and they refuse to honor it. GM crooked af. www.classaction.org/media/harrison-et-al-v-general-motors-llc.pdf Page 86, line 5. Welcome to heart break.

I’m sorry you’ve had a bad experience. I hope it comes out great and really get to enjoy it! The SS in the states only came with the LS3 so it doesn’t have any of that in it. I had a truck before the SS and when I did a cam kit, I also had to do the the VVT/ DOD delete on the 5.3L.
