Don’t forget about breaking in the cam after installation. It’s crucial for longevity. Has anyone experienced issues during break-in?

I had some hiccups; make sure to watch your oil pressure closely during the break-in period!

I love that people are so enthusiastic about Mods! Just don’t skip the small stuff; even a misaligned bolt can lead to trouble later.

26

Totally agree! Precision is key. Also, don’t forget to use thread locker on bolts to prevent them from coming loose!

I’ve DIY-ed a lot, but after my last job, I now believe in professional help for things like cam installations. Lessons learned.

I’m considering the Summit Stage 2 cam for my Silverado. What should I pair it with for the best performance?

29

Definitely look into a high-flow exhaust system! It really enhances the cam’s power by improving exhaust flow.

30

Adding a tuner would be a great move as well! It can adjust fuel maps to optimize performance with your new cam.

31

A quality set of fuel injectors can make a huge difference too. They help deliver the right amount of fuel for the increased air flow.

32

Agreed! Have you considered changing the intake as well? An upgraded intake can really improve overall efficiency.

33

What about headers? I heard that’s a good upgrade to work in conjunction with a decent cam.

34

Headers can pair beautifully with an upgraded intake as well! It optimizes the exhaust flow further.

35

This is starting to sound like a full build project! But I’m all for it if it means better performance.

36

Yeah, and if you’re planning to do this, it might not hurt to look into a proper tune after all these upgrades to make sure they all work well together.
