stock 5.3 cam- 190/191...466/457

ls2 cam-204/211...525/525
Oh Im not taking anything away from the dodge, thos damn things are moving out for no more than what is done to them. They are going to give all but the heavily modded gm trucks a hard time.

how is that not a mod?
Whole lotta work for minimal gain. A 212/218 cam is only worth 20rwhp. I didnt say it didnt help, it was just put on the mod list like the truck had a real cam when in fact its just a "baby" cam that comes in a stock application. Just like the hemi 5.7s putting the 6.1 cams in their trucks but even less gain.

Without it he definitely wouldve gotten pulled. Im just lazy and swapping a cam while easy is time consuming and Id want to put something a little bigger in there to show for all my work but if he was on a budget and got the cam for a good price/free and had some extra time on his hands then more power to him

Yeah thats why i said even less as far as gains. Thats wierd that it gave you that much hp and didnt change the tq at all. Mustve moved the hp peak way on up?

yup from 3500 on up. they chevy guy bought the cam for 100 buck and they cahrged him 200 to install so to him it wasnt a bad mod. He is young(18) and i dont think he wanted his parent to find out he did **** to the truck
