not right

Check your fuel pressure?

Also, I would definitely run a converter with that cam in that truck...

fuel pressure is fine and there no point of running a converter rihgt now if the truck will barely even run when you give it gas,we drove the truck for 10 minutes the then 3 of the damn lifters colapsed??? the guy im pretty sure just screwed my truck up

That sucks to hear. LIke said before, did you get the tune redone for the new cam and put the new PCM in the truck when the cam was put in, if not that is most likely your biggest problem. Also if you have high miles, the cam might just have been to much for stock high miles lifters to take, especially with stiffer valve springs.

Dont automatically blame the shop unless you have proof they fudged up the job.

I'm not saying the lack of a converter is causing your problem, I'm just saying with that cam in that truck you're going to need one to get the full benefit of that cam. It was more of a side point I guess.

Did you actually check the fuel pressure?

But yeah, if the lifters collapsed, they may have screwed something up on the install. Some of the more experienced installers can probably give you a reason why they might collapse after a cam install.

ya the new tune was put in and the motor isnt very old at all maybe 9 months since the rebuild
