big cam doesnt always mean big power. Its in the application.
The cam I want isnt a huge cam, but it gains more RWHP than the MS4. With stage 1 heads and longtubes, add ANOTHER +50hp onto that.
The MS4 is rated at +60whp. It doesnt gain but about 30-35hp with headwork.
He is right though, I hope you have a 4k waiting to go in. Your truck will be a complete slug til the ms4 powerband starts, which isnt at the advertised, because of your 5.3 It will probably start for you at around 3500.

i will get some track numbers friday and some dyno numbers soon
i hope it does well
my first plan was to pull the 5.3 and put a 6.0 with this cam but money got tight and i already had the cam so i said what the heck and put it in the 5.3
how much better would it do in a 6.0?
