notice torque peaks at 4800-4900rpm with all 4 cams as port size limits flow at about the same point

but notice as cam lobe duration increases the peak power increases as flow rates thru the ports does lengthen the flow times and the rpm at which it peaks

GM Engine Vin Codes
Anyone going out looking for a 4.8L or 5.3L Truck based LS engine that has already been removed from the vehicleBeware, Because unless you can look into the spark plug hole with a scope or little camera to see the top of the piston or insert a wire and run it across the piston surface to feel if it's dished or a flat top It's hard to tell the difference between those two. However if you look for the 8th digit in the VIN It will tell you most everything you need to know.
