i guess its according to if you want alot of low end, high end or an all around cam. also what kind of stall your going to have. i would say something with a reverse split. i dont know alot about cams though.

i will have about a 3k stall it really dont matter on the low end power because i will have nitrous to help out there along with the turbo.

T-rex all the way for what you want an f-body can get away with it in a 346ci motor then with the added weight of your truck but with 408ci you chould be good IMO. Massive top end power takes a little bit away from teh bottom but you need that to be easier on the drivetrain and hook 800hp isnt going to do you any good if it all goes up in smoke.
