Yes, I've got the trans control on my truck from sc. That is the main reason that I am running sc over the dsp I used to have. Down the road I am going to work on getting some custom tuning for the truck bc while the cam runs nice on the canned tune I know there is more to be had with a custom tune.

I would be intrested in hearing the idle differences between your 114LSA and my 112LSA when we get them in. I placed my order with Stu yesterday and said it will be a week and a half out.

the 114 should sound a little lopier than stock but pretty mild, the 112lsa should be a much more noticable lope at idle

Yeah it was almost gonna be a 110 LSA for Sean to tune but we decided the trq and hp range that would work better for me would be the 112. The 110 woulda been a sick idle and be ballys off the line but start falling off fast past 5k.

I should have ordered direct from Inertia. Been a week and no responses to my emails. First message from Bob (tues) said he sent Order to Stu with my noted Instructions (Basically asking for 114 LSA). The next Msg (weds) was Stu asking Bob what LSA I wanted since I had an 03 and 114 was better than standard 113, so I responded to Bob that as Per my Comments on the Order Yes I have an 03 and Yes I specified 114 LSA. So not 100% Happy bout it but maybe My Cam is in the line-up ahead of Yours Kenneth. So we should do a short Video of Idle when they are in. My Daughter Can do that for me on the Cool Camera I just got her for her 17th BD.

I'd call Stu and make sure he understand exactly what you are looking for. Then kick Bob in the nutz.

I took my last Unresponded e-mail to Bob and sent it to Stu and explained I just wanted to make sure he got the 114 LSA request. Maybe I'll get an update now!

Yep Hope so Teach! I got a cool auto-response from Inertia that said they would respond ASAP! which is pretty Pro so I think by end of the day I should be in the Know. :grd:

Danny you might wanna call Stu hes normaly ******* most of the days and checks his computer once or twice. He is pretty good about the phone. Deff alot easier talking to Stu also far as what you want because he builds everything per the customer. We kept tossing ideas around on different cam setups and came up with the Crazy Spartan on the 112 beacuse it was the happy med for what all I wanted. My current cam was awesome and even had some lope to it but I wanted more. Are you also getting a new cam gear and how many miles are on your truck? He might suggest new timing chain tensioners just as a precaution.

Just a few Miles, 228,000 Km or 141,676 Miles. The thought of new Timing Chain set-up crossed my mind. Your right and thanks for the suggestion, I called Stu direct and he was pretty busy(only 2 pages behind) but picked up right away and confirmed my LSA would be 114 and that was the way to go with the SC. He said just to replace the plastic tensioner piece cause it's made of plastic and gets brittle so thats what I'll do as a minimum, or look at the set Moe has on his site but "i am getting impatient with Bob right about now".

Is there more than one tensioner Kenneth? I'll pull up a photo before I call my Guy at the Mopar Shop in town (dealer).

I'll check his site out! So whats the story there, Bob is an authorized Inertia dealer and makes like 10-20 bucks off a cam, in Hindsite I shoulda went direct as the price was same. I do want to keep in good with Bob though cause he try's hard and also has the best price and availability on my next couple Mods, especially Gears and LSD and don't forget I'm in Canada and if it can go USPS I'm OK, which Bob does, cause Brokerage is a killer with UPS, etc.

Inertia's site only has the main stuff not all the little things that go along with it posted. On my order I placed im getting another cam gear, cam bolt, crank bolt, tensioners, maybe a timing kit I cant remember and the new cam with different pushrods. The pushrods I currently have were the custom cut ones that were hardened and everything else. I just have delt with Stu in the past and will talk to you and take the time to advise you on what all to do and have your intrest in mind. I know he ships fedex mostly but could prob do something different for you. Im trying to get Stu on this site as a Vendor but hes just so busy which is a good thing. As far as the tensioners go Im trying to remember from when I pulled mine apart and am drawing a blank.

The Tensioner is on a big Tin plate that fits behind the Cam and bottum gear. Like teach says the plastic piece is on the left but it also has what appears to be another plastic guide on the right, hard to see in the dealer manual, but I downloaded a pic of the parts layed out. My Mopar guy says because of that big ass plate design as far as he checked you can't just buy that piece like for the 5.9 (smaller one Piece deal for 30 Bucks).

I could buy a manley adjustable dual chain set-up for 200 bucks. I asked the Mopar Guy to go ahead and order the entire 4 piece OEM kit as he gave me a deal at 125 Bucks and funds are tight (Wifes working today so thats good $$). Funny thing my cam bolt came in the other day and we had a laugh because what we recieved was a 10 cent philips upholstery screw. Number was correct just a bad picker of parts.

I will definately go to Stu when I get to the Heads stage and or I need to rebuild my current Motor. Thanks for listenen and your imput Guys. Gotta go do some work or I'll be dead (Took out a Big T-Bone Steak for my Wife too....he.he).
