I would have to agree on the cam... It's really overkill for stock heads. You might be better off selling it and finding something more on the order of a tr224, vinci trucker cam or similar. Something with under .600 of lift.

EDIT-The stock 5.3L heads begin to max out at .500 lift(that's not a typo) and even if you get new heads, the intake maxes out at about .600 lift. Both don't flow very well, but the stock 753(or whatever they're called) heads are ****.
