    What does your oil pressure run at? Cold vs. fully up to temp?

    40psi idle 50-60psi highway/normal driving under 3500rpm and 96psi wide open. But I have a hi volume/high pressure pump. My coworker has stock 10 Tahoe hes at 20psi idle 40-45psi on highway/normal drive and 60psi wide open.

    Ls3 shortblock

    So I got the short block home it has been bored 20 over. It measured 4.085 cylinders. My heads are cnc ported so looking at the flow charts my heads flow almost exactly the same on intake side off by like 4cfm and they flow 25ish better on exhaust side. So they will act like stock ls3 heads...

    Cam/headers for 5.3 build?

    I have gibson ceramic coated shorty headers , 212/218 texas speed cam, new rockers with Michigan motorsports truinon upgrade, texas speed hardened pushrods and 243 prc ported heads. And I will say you hear alot of exhaust pinging/valve train noise with headers. Almost sounds like an exhaust...

    Exhaust cut outs.

    Why I gotta hear the cam? Because I'm still a car guy and like to hear the thump thump of the cam, What did you think I installed a cam just for power gains!!?? And as stated before I like it to be mostly quiet most of the time aka sleeper.

    Exhaust cut outs.

    Magnaflow muffler alot of people use 12589 or something like that, Gutted 3rd cat and slp resonator delete. I think it's perfect for daily and running with family. But I do those times when I'm alone headed to work or store and I wish it sounded like my old straight pipe camaros and mustang's...

    Exhaust cut outs.

    Pretty basic questions. Who has electronic cut-outs, How long have you had them? Do they leak? What brand? I'm heavily looking at qtp cut-outs I've seen alot of good reviews on them. I can barely hear my cam with my exhaust but I dont want to have to screaming all the time as its a family...

    Question about HD tow package?

    When you pick up the truck double check that you have an external trans cooler, My 09 Yukon has the 3.42 gears and "towing package" but for some reason it didnt have an external trans cooler so i added one.

    Walk around after cam and heads

    I put another 450 miles on it and no noises so far. Its not my daily so it takes me awhile to put miles on it. I use it when i pull my trailer mostly and i take it to my second job on Saturdays that's only 3 miles up the road. Ive done a few wot with hp tuners logging it hits 95psi and never...
