My Buddy has a 4.8L and his current mods are Headers and a Wheatley Tune.
He wants to put a cam in, and is going to do a stall at the same time.
Now my question is what Cam should he get? What Specs? He doesnt plan on spraying of FI, so it would need to be a good N/A Cam.
TIA
Daniel

I would say that a cam like what Lambchop got would be good.

The difference between winning and losing, is having a 2nd stage.
it is when i know people are just wanting a little more power and nothing to seriousi didnt know too big was in your vocab virg.
now with people like you and a few others there is no to big word because i know what you guys are wanting to accomplish and you have the balls to take it to the extreme and if it blows that just means upgrades...but to some that means they are out a DD and a few more bucks that they might not have had to start out

How does he want his truck to run? Screamer up top with a 3600 stall, or a little more power down low and a 2600-3000 stall? I would say a good N/A cam for a 4.8L truck would be something in the neighborhood of a 216/218 .542/.551 on a 114 LSA. I would match that up to a 3000 stall. I am using an exhaust bias on the cam because you told me he has headers with no other mods.
