stock 5.3 stick to the 212/218... but what r u looking for.. just sound or performance as well.. if ur planning on going faster ur better off doing all the rest of the upgrades and then depending on what u have chose a cam... ur gonna want the stall also.. 5.3s are pigs out the hole and i believe a stall on its own makes more improvement then a cam.. but like i said its all depending on what u want.

there's no easy way to due this either you go in head first or you stay away! with a cam comes springs ,tune , then you run into problems , rear end , tranny ,ect.... ., so like i said go in head first or stay away , not trying to be an *** , but unfortunatly i learned that the hard way!
