I love seeing the early d580 LS1 coil packs on the 8.1. It was born to be a performance motor.

582 Richard, not 482. I had to go back and rewind this to make sure I wasn't seeing/hearing something funky, lol. AWESOME to see that cam not giving up a bunch of torque down low!

Good to see the 8.1 getting some love .
These things just never got the attention they deserved . Can't wait to see what a decent manifold can do .

Well, I have a new ZZ502 cam. Now just need a 8.1 and they aren't as cheap a 5.3!
Plus, we need more aftermarket parts!

Correction needed at 13:23 - you wrote and said 482.5 ft/lbs for the gen 6 cam, graph showed 582 ft/lbs.

I want a cam in my 8.1! I want that torque! Surprised how well that cam liked the engine, almost like it was the cam they should have had from the start
