what size stall is it?
do you want a torque/bottom end cam or one for top end and rev over 6krpm?

 

sorry if i put on there that i had a stall.right now i don't i have the stock stall on the truck.what i ment is that what stall should i go with the cam.i want a buttom end.what do you recomend?

 

personally id call or pm richard@WCCH for a custom ground cam.

id think something like a 216/220 on a 112 w/ around 550s lift

 

who is he?.is he someone from comp cams or somewhere like that?i have a buddy here in pasadena "flaco3rdgen" i think he can order custom grind cams.he told me the same thing "custom grind".i really want to set my truck to run a constant low 13's in good weather and also somewhere in high 12's.where is he located?good friend of yours?

that is his truck!!!

 

edgar go with the 228r from tsp and a 3200 stall, call me

 

richard@WCCH owns and operates a CNC head porting business and is now known for his engine building. he can get any grind of a comp cam you want, and will tell you what will work best for your specific application. he also sponsors this site and helps keep it running.

IMO i dont think you will not like the TSP 228R, no matter what size stall you get, especially in a crew cab. the 228R is NOT a bottom end cam but with a large enough stall you wont notice it

 

The 228 is alot of cam for a 5.3l. It would require atleast a 3600 stall to get optimal performance.

I would think something around the 212/218 high lift cam with a 3200 stall will get you close to what you want. Will provide great hp and torque from 2800rpms to 6200 rpms.

 

go with the 228 geeze don't listen to these people
