That is a pretty big cam for a daily driver (imho), but the 6.0 should handle it well. You may want to back down a little to say something like the Vinci 045 or 055 or similar. (check the cam thread that has a sticky above). But, cam opinions are like ears, everyone has a couple.

Why Do You Think That Is To Big A Cam Will It Use To Much Gas Or What I Drive About 45 Miles A Day To Work And Back

I said pretty big, not too big. The 6.0 can handle a good size cam. At what rpm range is that cam making the power? I assume it is in the range 2800-6000 or so. If you do a lot of city driving your gas mileage may suffer due to the amount of gas you will consume in stop and go traffic. If most of your 45 miles is on the highway, you may see no decrease at all.
