Default Help me decide between these two cams

Finally bent the rods and cracked some pistons at the wrist pins in my truck. I have a gen 4 6.0 ready to take the old 5.3s place. This is the cam I was running in the 5.3 212-220 557/564 on a 118 lsa this was speced as a blower cam but ran quite well in my setup. This is the cam I had 8n the 6.0 it's a cam motion grind 221-226 56?/56? On 113 lsa. Which would you use truck in my sig.

I'm a cheap bastard, I'm leaning toward running the cam motion grind because it chopped good in my na. 6.0 and I hated how the 5.3 sounded stock with the 118 lsa.

You don't have a signature that we can see.

Are you building it for power or sound? What type of FI do you have and how much boost?
