Default 5.3 cam install

I was curious how hard it is to install a cam and what all is iinvolved with the install. I would plan on installing it myself if not to much of a pain in the ***. Also does anyone have any suggestions on what size cam for my 5.3. My current mods are an out of the box procharger kit, 3000 stall, transgo, built tranny, powertrax, edelbrock shorties, 3 inch dual exhuast with flowmasters, 3.73 gears, 4/6 drop, and 20 inch centerline stingray III's. But the motor it self is stock with 38,000 miles. thanks for the help.

Cam is sold. But you might want to look at a TR220 or TR224. They will work great in your 5.3 with 3k stall.
