I've got a single bolt 220/220 .547/.547 114LSA +4 that Futral ground for me.
I made 340RWHP/310RWTQ with it. I've been trying to sell it locally, but no luck. I've dropped the price to $200 and still no bites. PM me if your interested.

What do you mean ttt??? ....guys just gave you six cam options to research and figure out if you want any of them in your truck.

Here's a 7th option to research, the XR265 high lift.
http://store.summitracing.com/partde...1&autoview=sku

Just keep in mind that in terms of daily driveability, less cam is more pleasing. Make your big power another way, other than revving the **** out of the motor into the 7000+ rpm range. The cam I linked ya to will make pretty good cylinder pressure for all around power vs just high RPM peak power, and the 115LSA will move the power band up a bit too while softening up idle characteristics. The power band listed on the Summit link above is for a 5.7L 346ci, so remember this cam will be a little wilder in a 5.3L.
