Default What about this cam?

218/228 .550/.550 on 112 lsa? Is that a huge cam? What mods would I need to support it besides springs and push rods?

-Thanks in advance.

What kinda power range are you looking for? What do you want to do with the truck?
What are the LSA's of those cams?

Well the most power it can make of course. Its going to be my DD till I can get a Vette and just want it to have a little more kick. Pretty happy with the perfomance now, just want it faster than a stock truck.

Was thinking about a 3k stall. What do you suggest? Thanks
