L92 cam swap project

[rlopez3]

New project, 2008 Escalade EXT truck and warranty expired, I decided to do some mods to it. 2/4 drop kit with 24 inch platinum replicas. DOD Delete kit, 3 bolt cam from previous build (223/234 @ .50 .625 .625 lift on 112+4 LSA), added BTR .660 dual valve springs. LS3 TB, aluminum radiator, 160 degree thermostat. Melling HV oil pump, Volant Cold Air Intake, COMP trunion kit, Speed Engineering 1 7/8 Long tubes, Magnaflow High Flow cats, true dual 2.5 inch exhaust, dual in/dual out Magnaflow muffler. No mods to the transmission yet (maybe a 3600 stall). HP tuned but redoing the tune shortly due to an exhaust leak (header gasket failure). Have some valve train noise coming from driver side head, passenger side is quieter. Use Castrol Edge 10W40 and still have it, all rockers are torqued, using 7.425 COMP push rods but noise is driving me crazy. Will work on it soon and add better videos. Please chime in!

you built a classic.

 

The left side is called cold.

 

Try an H-pipe up tight near the header.

 

sounds great otherwise.
