Without cam specs, you're kind of shooting in the dark. If it's a mild NA cam, you can SC to a point, but if it's a max effort NA cam, you'll just be blowing the boost out of the exhaust. A good...

TBH, you knew this was coming. Not having a front plate is obviously going to immediately draw the attention of a cop. From that point, all he's doing is writing down the things you knew broke the...

I believe it can be done by replacing the lifters alone with factory LS3 ones. However, if you're digging that far into the engine, you might as well replace/upgrade some other valvetrain parts,...

Just to add on, your tires being different diameters won't necessarily cause problems. I'm running 20x10 wheels with 285/35r20 up front and 20x11 wheels with 305/35r20 in the back with no problems.
