    Would you go a different route?

    For my truck, I'd go with a cam that offers a little better topend. Prob something along the lines of a 226/230 or 228/232.

    For a mild build with a low-stalling converter, a cam like the TR224 would work great in a 6.0.

    Not tryin the jack the thread, but I was lookin for a cam too and it looks like we have similar lifted trucks with big tires and geared...But I don't really ususally wind mine up too high, usually just really hard take offs at the lights. Think that 224 would be good, or should I go a little more

    i had the cam spec'd for a 5.7 ls1 in my ex cab z71 with a tight 26-2800 stall...im guessing it should run fine in a 6.0 with stock stall
