Swapping a ZR1 Corvette cam into a 5.3 LT Truck!!! 

Unfortunate as a collapsed lifter is, it never hurts to do a little upgrade

You guys inspired me to purchase a busted car and have fun tearing it apart. Another well done video!

Fine job gentlemen!

You should add a parts list with part numbers would love to do this to my L83.

Should be a nice little 20-30whp gain up top 👌🏻

Bro, my truck chevy 5.3 l83 motor must be a god tier motor fully stock on engine internal no issues or ticking, only the transmission shutter, but im about to fully rebuild my 6l80e with everything upgraded new torque converter clutch plates etc even new driveline axle plus new cam since I'm investing in a converter and transmission to hold the power

I have lt1 camaro L86 can i install zr1 cam ?

Awesome job question what cam you recommend for GMC 06 Sierra V6 4.3 L thanks

One step back, 2 steps forward! I put on the Range technologies AFM delete at about 46,000 miles hopefully it'll prevent the lifter issue. How many miles? Thanks and good job! 💯🇺🇲

Any increase in off idle tq and low rpm towing? Torn between this cam and the smallest btr/tsp cam available for the lt series engines. The 6.2 intake and tb made a noticeable off idle increase in tq on my otherwise stock 5.3.

Is the Brock Purdys brother or something?

LS7 lifters are a factory lifter... they have a little different design than the stocks but don't offer any performance advantages and maybe a little more durability. A lot of companies make them some cheap some good. Morel and Johnson are some good ones for sure. Lifter preload is the most important thing to dial in for performance. Alot of people just go by the internet for data but exhaust and intake should both be checked with a pushrod length checker. The whole counting turns just isnt very percise imo. Good stuff guys and nice truck!

I have a dumb question but I’m ready to start installing a On3 kit on my 2018 Silverado but mine has the L86 6.2l. I’ve been back and forth on this as I don’t need a big cam and was wondering if the ZR1 cam you did would be ideal for my turbo kit opposed to the Non-Dod Stock L86 cam that Texas speed Offers?

One issue is the blower cam has a taller lsa which tends to lose low end power and moves power higher in the rpm.

Did you replace the seals on the injectors?

Are you in Oakland Park FL ?

Thumbs up for me...Wonder What Powa it Makes

how much would you guys charge to redo this on a 2015 L83? im in florida.

Ur using stock torq converter or u have a bigger stall 1?

Hello, I have yukon ls9 5.3 2008 i am thinking to get zr1 cam Is it good so far and how much hp you got What else should I add into my car with zr1 cam Thanks

Did you have to resurface the heads before reinstalling them?

Any wot pulls?

👍👍

How’d ya get the timing chain over the cam phaser and sprocket?

That first start up tho

Would it still pass smog with this cam?

How ls cam in lt?

isn’t this cam meant for boost tho ? why use it on a na setup

Where did you the the kit cam ?

Will it still pass smog ?

Did you install a VVT limiter with this cam?

All gms trucks after your generation has that problem if its a gas motor .

Why do some shops take the motor out to swap the cam out? Then some leave it inn the truck. I was told the motor has to come out. While obviously it don't good job men.

😂😂😂sounds worse than I thought

Worst cam to do

So much cringe

LS7 lifters are trash... big mistake using them.
