[@bretfritzinger1613]

The attention to detail is second to none! So glad I trusted you guys with my SS! You guys have my business for life!

[@MAD_BST]

please upgrade your rocker arm trunnion kit to the che kit that removes the needle bearings entirely. if u get those needle bearings in your oil pan your gonna be in the saaaaame boat as me. (the che kit costs under 300 bux last i looked and will save you from the giga bill of having to replace everything.)

[@jayknight139]

was the increase in the performance worth the price in your opinion? and are you going to do more upgrades?

[@bretfritzinger1613]

Yes I would definitely do it again and yes I will be doing more mods in the future. This will hold me over for awhile though.

[@HymezKidd]

What did this cost out the door?

[@bretfritzinger1613]

The cam package is 3500

[@ssjohnny6311]

80 hp off cam and headers, but that guy who does the tuning never gives himself credit he's a damn good tuner

[@lilhecca]

right lmao he’s a very good and humble tuner

[@TheJeffe613]

I like how this guy actually tunes the car. 👏🏻

[@thekingscene]

A triple valve spring would totally blow his mind.....😂

[@RobFRC]

These past few episodes have been so much more enjoyable and authentic with censoring being eliminated🤘

[@jeremynottingham6277]

Yes, Uncensored shop vids. last shop I worked at, yrs ago, them ol men would put this language to shame, but then again, We were not YT videoing ether. I'm sure these guys were on their "best" behavior ..lol Nice work/tune...

[@tyzorg]

83HP! Very healthy. Put it on e85 and put a ported fast 102 on that baby and hit 500 for sure =)

[@denden4387]

WOW....470HP off of a Cam Kit and Headers, I'm IMPRESSED!!!! Total Gain of 83 HP to the Wheel....DAM!!!!

[@Tanner_Teves]

The J-pipes on the solo exhaust are to eliminate drone.

[@cutty4086]

They always talking smack about Solo performance exhaust. I don't think they're bad at all for the price.

[@John_Q_Public]

So that Solo J-pipe in the rear, or "some bent dick thing on the side of it" as you so eloquently put it, is noise canceling technology that not only completely cancels out drone, but is also fully adjustable, so that if the drone frequency is changed by exhaust , tune or other power adders, the j-pipes can be slid in or out to cancel the drone. I would invite you to drive the SS around straight piped, particularly at around 1200-1400 RPM, and then do the same with the Solo system. Not the same, not even close to the same. I've done both, on an SS, and while one rattles your fillings out, the other sounds good around town, and full on stupid under full throttle, just the way God intended. 👍

[@jimmytt6]

Love Frans comments on Solo mufflers 😂😂

[@Jnibbs24]

I get a ton of compliments on my solos and I have zero drone on freeway 👌🏼

Man gm must of really tuned those things low from the factory for that family car. But that thing on a cold fall day when it’s 35-40 degrees out is gonna scream

[@Power_Tech_TV]

I have a G8 GT with TSP cam and dod delete kit. I have been running a mail order tune for about a year, and would love to have a Fran tune. I have been fallowing ever since you first started posting and love the builds. It would be eppic to do a give away with merch purchase. And yes I know you are super busy and don't need the work. But it would be so great for us financially challenged. lol Thanks again for all the content.

[@RaceProvenMotorsports]

I can remote tune it. Shoot me an email [e-mail]

Those extra valves on that SS really woke it up. Lol Garrett

I can honestly appreciate how Raw this dude is. He's real, he gets results, another satisfied customer. I laughed my ass off so many times at the comments!

[@Lance.West4]

I had a 09 vette manual cam only 630 ish something lift 230ish duration and it put down 475 @RPM in NC. Probably the difference in transmissions.

[@Ws6Ms]

And ??

[@Lance.West4]

@LS3M6 and ya momma was good! Cool name BTW very unique and original. I should have been 09vett so I could be a cool guy like you, and then we could be friends! Maybe one day....

[@cwyoming7004]

Perfect sleeper car if it wasn't so loud. Great video

[@Darylrb1983]

Soooooo what you're me is i need one of these with a cam as a gift to myself after i retire from active duty? Do i hear a yes?

[@BigCherries]

Dang that’s not bad, now I have to rethink my priorities.

[@ihateracin]

“Can it really do that?” Yes, and after having a flashlight thrown at me for forgetting to pull one of the lifters out as a kid, I can confirm it ain’t good.

[@TheHuggmg]

I remember helping my father replace a broken valevspring on a 3800 Buick engine. It involved removing a spark plug, stuffing lots of string into the cylinder and cranking it up to Top Dead Center to keep the valve from dropping into the cylinder while we removed the retainer and old spring. I learned something new that day. Lol

[@obeyshadey8918]

Idk what I did wrong but I did this exact same set up with a roto intake instead of a ram air. Only got maybe 440 on the dyno. Drowning in disappointment but I may be expecting too much.

[@eddielewis3868]

what’s the engine spray he sprayed on there? some type of degreaser??

[@MAD_BST]

So about RPM. These guys are the goats pretty much when it comes to getting your car fixed. I contacted them via email about my car. They gave me all true prices. mainly bc my car is at a shop here, and the prices they gave me match up to what im being told by the shop here. I have the same car in this video. Now for the sad part. Heres what mine came with from the dealership ( which i had no clue about until after it blew up. ) Engine has the following upgrades: -Rocker arms have BTR trunnion upgrade -Camshaft is BTR Stage 2 NA -Dual aftermarket valve springs -Aftermarket rear seal cover -Johnson lifters -7.600" pushrods -ARP balancer bolt -Melling oil pump -Mahle pistons, standard bore anyone wanna guess why my shit blew up? I know absolutely nothing about cars and im pretty sure my guess was right. also car was lacking the proper torque converter. I will now have to pick myself up off the floor, and is also why it taken me so long to watch this vid. BIG SADGE. to the owner of the car in the video for me, rev one time for my fallen whip. Much love and gb all. Bill was right. i need a whole ass engine. cost to fix old engine, 10k, cost of a brand new crate engine, installed 11.1k. #fml

[@hellkizzy_Dom1x]

Damn man. It probably sounded sick too 💪🏽. But hopefully all goes well for you 💯💪🏽🙌🏽👑

Question: Doesn't purple Power oxidized aluminum if you leave it on there without rinsing it?

[@a.r5365]

How much would this package cost ? Nice job guys

[@michaelthomas5140]

Not bad at all on pump gas, I’m assuming E-85 would only bump it up about 15-20hp.

[@loweredyote8416]

I thought the dual valve spring thing was a joke

[@jeffrogers2180]

Yikes. Hanging around this group would be exhausting..

[@BlueCollarKobe]

I’m wondering if I should get one of these and procharge it or just buy a Gen 2 V and put it on E

[@PublicEnemyLive]

The "bent dick" coming off the exhaust is a tunable resonator. They look funky but they do work decently.

[@vondrelleraven4380]

I wish they would have pushed that car more. I love that car I still want one smh. Chevy dropped the ball big time

[@PERFECTLS3]

The car was built by Holden GM in Elizabeth South Australia. The factory closed in 2017, and took the Holden Commodore and the Chevy SS with it.

[@jeremynottingham6277]

@@PERFECTLS3 GM also failed in marketing the car here in the USA "who wants a 4dr v8 RWD manuel car ?". Was almost too late to buy a new one by the time Some of us heard about them.

[@PERFECTLS3]

@@jeremynottingham6277 They never marketed the car, as they needed to sell very few to satisfy the terms of the agreement. The manual transmission wasn't available until 2015. That's why I traded in my 2014 😎

Anybody notice second to last pull the license plate went off then come back on when it slowed down

[@jayquanpaige8473]

It got to much power brake pads turned red❤️‍🔥👍🏽

[@greggfridline4260]

I have almost the same set up on my 2015 SS, its an Auto, i think this one was also, or you shift like a champ. It runs great, but one thing i found, it stalls until it warms up (when i put it in gear), it does good when warmed up until i am coming to a stop, then it will stall on me (sometime, not all the time). it shifts great, just stalls sometime when coming to a stop. is that normal? I had it tuned after the cam went in, or do i need a different torque converter. I wish i could have came to you guys, but I am way to far away.

[@stanle9885]

Genuinely curious why the stock lifters are being reused? Obviously alot more work being that the heads will need removed. But are the LS3 stock lifters just that good? Thanks in advance.

[@RaceProvenMotorsports]

We don’t reuse anything. We are installing new LS7 lifters

[@troymyers5181]

Always wanted a SS, I think they're pretty sweet. Maybe a touch loud but very cool, nice hp/torque numbers on upgrade.

[@jjslowss522]

What’s the intake called and can it be purchase for the 2ss Camaro ?

Truck Norris cam from BTR

[@LSXTyler]

@@eric6.2ltccsb best daily cam but if you want high peak power get something bigger with a big torque converter

[@TheHuggmg]

Depends what you wanna do really...if it's your daily driver and you might use it for towing and hauling ocassionally, then a cam with more low to mid range would be most beneficial while still gaining a decent top end.
