I will say that a FTI 3200 stall converter on a stock setup makes the whole truck fill different. It fills like your towing an anchor in first gear but once you get going it feels amazing. Top it with a corvette servo and a shift kit, it’s a sleeper since nothing has been done to the engine yet.

If you was to put better rear-end gears in the truck it would take off better.

Great video, explanation. As I'm teetering on a cam selection on my LS1 Silverado build, I think you just solidified which direction I'm going to go.

I have a 99 silverado had a lm7 but had to put a lr4 in it. Put a truck norris cam, the full lifter, pushrod and trunion upgrade on michigan motorsports. I have full stock exhaust with cats, stock convertor. Stock transmission and rear gears. Truck came srock with 3:73 gears. I have a sound clip/short of it on my channel. Before the tune it obviously had no power, was out of time and died every stop but after the une he raised the idle from about 550/600-aboit 850/900. It does cause the convertor to have excess slip at stops and such like you're power braking it. Im being haunted with a p0121 code now that is tearing my transmission up. Sets transmission to full line pressure when there is a check engine light and makes it shift hard. Bangs into gears. Jasper reman with only 70k on it. Tuner isnt helping me even though ive narrowed it down to the HP tuners tune not reading the map sensor correctly. The map sensor reading it has from the cam is higher than the tuned value and needs to be raised. This map sensor reading shouldnt be there until about 30 percent throttle position on a stock cammed engine.

You need your tuner to look at your 1-2 shift. That was a very lazy shift! Since its a 4L60E, you should add a little more torque management so it completes the shift quicker. Ive had to fix soooo many trans tunes from a local performance tuner. Its kind of annoying and now I look for it everywhere... lol

Add more torque or take it away while shifting?

@cliffweatherbee69145 ай бұрын
@AbslutZr add torque management, which pulls timing during shifting. Only add about 10%, then you can shorten the time needed for the shift. Under full power, I shoot for 0.125 seconds. As long as you gave the pressures and torque management in proper place, that shift is crisp and firm.

wow I love the sound of that camshaft...please give me the name of that cam and all the number of the specs of that camshaft...that is one mean sounding camshaft at idle and going down the street...I would love to see Dyno numbers and track time slips...if time slips look Pretty reasonable I would like to go with that setup of yours and go from there????

Richard Holdener dyno tested this same cam in a 5.3 and it made peak power at 7600 RPM with TrickFlow 245 cathederal ports and a BTR Trinity intake. When you get on it around 7:57 it seems like the tune shifts around 5500-6000. I assume you have stock heads and intake but even so, IMO, it probably needs to rev out more to really eat. That said I can understand the limiting factor currently may be your transmission.
@Andregarcia5.08 ай бұрын
Yes that was a limiting factor ! I have a tr6060 manual trans now and she eats ! Redlines at 6500 and I can feel it’s a night and day difference

I have this same cam with ported heads on my 2011 sierra and drove it with stock converter for over a year with no problems other than brakes felt weird because it did not create enough vacuum at idle but thats it I finally installed a 3200 stall and love it do yourself a favor and just get the converter installed when you do your cam
