Cool, but call or text before, cause the cam may not get delivered by then... BTW you up for dyno tuning in a week or so?

Anyone want to help with the install?
Your sig shows that you already have a 220/220 in your truck. Is it on a really wide LSA or something? Otherwise, I really doubt you'll notice much by adding 2 degrees to the intake and 4 to the exhaust. You probably would have the same results by just playing with where the ICL is.

It is on a 114+4... The new cam is on a 112+2... I am wanting more aggressive sound at idle, and I am hoping the lower LSA will bring the TQ in a little quicker... My current cam has a overlap is -8* the new one has a -1* overlap... IMO i should see a difference....
