Default Which cam?

Truck is a 5.3 with little turbo and mostly a street truck with the odd trip for drag nights. Leaning towards btr or the dumpster fire cam.

I have a single 70mm right now but will go to a 76mm ball bearing. Boost level would probably be 15psi and 6500rpm give or take.

We have our line of turbo camshafts that perform well and are competitively priced. Our stage 1 ghost cam would be a great sleeper cam with a mild noticeable lope. 2,500 rpm stall converter recommended but not required.

Or you could go with the stage 2 turbo cam. The stage 2 will have a steady lope. It spools quickly and pulls hard in the mid-range and has a great top-end. 2,800 rpm stall converter recommended.
