Dude there's a pretty big difference between a 2 door coupe camaro with 26" tires and a 5000 lbs silverado. You're going to have a TON more drivetrain loss with a silverado than a camaro.

Not to mention that a cam that big is going to make it's power WAYY into 6k rpms. Who wants to daily drive a truck like that? It would blow.
