HO cams- thinking about 206's - 5/9/2008 7:54:55 AM    chris1974 Posts: 344 Joined: 4/9/2007 Status: offline So..I upgraded to the HO cams about 8 or 10 months ago.  I am completely happy with the upgrade.  Along with the CAI, Exhaust, Intake, and TB upgrade the engine runs ALOT better than it did when it was stock.  And the engine seems to love it too!  On to my question....I am thinking about upgrading from the HO cams to the 206's from KRC.  I was checking out some other Dakotas on YouTube, and ran across one with the 206's installed, and man....I was impressed.  Has anyone installed the 206* cams in thier ride??  Just curious about how much more you can get outta the bigger cams?  Wondering if it would have been worth the extra cash to get the bigger cams??  (That stimulus check I got yesterday is my Dakotas new best friend.)  lol _____________________________ 2003 4.7 sport 3" Magnaflow catback K&N CAI HO upgrade (cams and intake) "What we are dealing with here is a complete lack of respect for the law."

It took a long time for the EMC to realize what had been fitted, it went through a period of occasoinally stalling at traffic lights but now its sorted itself out it really flys. One bonus that I wasn't expecting is that she no longer needs priemium gas. Ever since I installed the Performance tune off my Superchips programmer it would "ping" a little on full throttle, even with the highest octane available over here. Soon after fitting the cams there was short period when Super unleaded wasn't available in my area so I had to fill her up with Regular. Stayed on Regular ever since! Go for it! _____________________________ 2000 Ex.Cab 4.7V8 Full-Time 4WD with Retrax bed-cover. (in reply to mplue) Post #: 5
