Just a heads up guys I will be doing a dyno run before/after the ported manifold I ordered from Peak speed shop for my 6.2 Escalade.

  • I'm going to dyno my Escalade with just volant intake/3.5 inch magnaflow muffler swap/ported tb and tune on the 20th.

 

  • I then will run the truck the 24th down the 1/4 with the above mods.

 

  • Will install the ported manifold the week after and set up a dyno appt to see how much I can get out of it.

 

The truck is at the dealer now and rear end 9.5 is whining with like 3000 miles on it so they are pulling the gears and I asked for 3.73 gears to be swapped in which they are doing for me (I think im the first idiot that put 3.73 gears in the 6.2 escalade lol) The truck should launch nicely with the gear swap and would be nice if it ran in the 13s with 24s and a few mods.

its 425 and makes 12-15 on the car ones they do but no one has yet to try it on the 6.2 so Ill see how it does.

Ill have pics as soon as I get the manifold. The 2wd esky is a lot faster than the awd one thats for sure. My buddy has bolt ons on his awd escalade and mine has still the stock tune and volant intake/muffler and I beat him by 2-3 cars everytime we race. Hes gong 14.60s in his truck also and this was with the 3.42 gears. I cant wait to race him again with the 373s in.

Have your new gears "cryoed" before installation, it will make them stronger to handle the increased HP & TQ.

Before I go on guys get a catch can as your next mod will keep manifold a lot nicer.

 

ok so here we go. Overall the truck pulls better esp on the high end

If you're starting a pool on the HP increase, put me in for 6 HP for the manifold without any tune or other mods.

Hmmm, maybe some more than that. What are the gains seen on the LSXRT? Aren't.they like 15-20? I'm interested to see how this turns out.

      My brother has an Escalade. The warranty has expired so he told his wife to go to the Valvoline quick lube he uses some times. They told her if her car was a 2020 and newer 6.2 engine they wouldn’t touch it. Hers is a 2019, so they did the oil change.

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      The oil filter has NOTHING To do with oil leak. GM sources parts from 1,000's of vendors and as with anything mass produced, flaws are unavoidable.    Putting a larger oil filter will do nothing but satisfy emotions. The OEM filter is designed for the engine and perfectly capable of handling the demands on the engine. Oversize oil filter could result in reduced flow and overall lower oil pressure.

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
