Cam Swap and Opinion

[Tonyrodz]

I've heard about the tune. I wonder if I can run it for awhile using the 4.8 pcm. But I'm getting the 6.0 computer with it, so I'm guessing it should be fine.

6.0 computer is vin locked. Get the vatts disabled and you can use it.

Where can I do that? I'm sure the dealer is expensive. Would/could it run on the 4.8 tune for awhile?

I saw another member here run his on his 5.3 tune for awhile.

When I swapped to my 6.0 the tunner said I would run lean. I am sure with the 4.8 you would run rich. But imo I would try to stay with a 5.3. The 4.8 is under powered in out trucks. The 5.3 and a small cam will be a huge difference and should be affordable. I know how expensive the 6.0 swap can be. Just finished mine this summer but got a lot of luck on some smoken deals. Kijji is a local or Canadian site to sell stuff. I just found aLQ4 for $550.

As number is on the top right it anyone is interested 11751569
I think it had 227 km on it

That's cheap for sure. At $850 complete with 111,000 on it, how can I pass it up?

Anyone have a link so I can check specs on the differences between the motors, injector size etc. Tia
