Matt, your lifters should be in VA on Wednesday. Shipped via UPS.

On the cam thing, I'd still lean towards a smaller 408 cam to begin with. Probably something in the upper 220s. Then see if I wanted more cam or not. I'd be looking for a used FMS cam to try out first.

I've run 3 different cams in my 4**ci engines-comp/MTI-244/244 612/612 112 peak hp was at 5800rpms, comp 252/258 612/613 112 peak hp was at 6300rpms, and currently running the LG G5X4 111LS peak hp is at 6500rpms. My truck is my daily driver, other than the lope, it has good street manners.

I had to change my oil pump at 5k miles b/c the oil pressure was very low.

i have replaced oil pump with a high flow and a few lifters and it was good for a few more pounds.
