Rebirth of Redbull.Cammed Lq4

So after driving my hurt ls1 for a year.I sold it as is and slapped in a low mileage lq4 from a 04 Denali.The motor was super clean inside when I tore it down..cross hatches looked new,only thing needed to be changed was the timing chain had some play.

For mods I did Tsp 228r cam 112lsa,ls6 intake,ls7 clutch,stock 317 heads,stock manifolds,ls2 maf, dual 2.5 catted y pipe to 3inch magnaflow cat back.Im running the stock ls1 ecm and tune with ls6 injectors and she started up no issue and idles nicely at 950.The oil from the ls1 coated my exhaust pipes alot so that is why it was smoking for a little while on startup.

All I can say now is I love this cam! I may not even go further on this build over the next yr with heads and lt headers,Im quite content.Burnout videos will soon follow!
