As for the whole other nonsense the same can be said with their comments so where do you want to go with this?
Thing about internet is ppl become very butthurt over not knowing how to take the comment, the other issue is ppl are way too sensitive these days

Picking a cam is like asking everyone who the hottest chick in the world is. Too many different answers. Figured the Thumpr with a set of headers and a tune for OP would be a decent choice cause in a stock truck there aren't any real draw backs and you get to have everyone stare at it when you're idling. Can you do better? Yeah buy the MS4 or T-Rex.

I am giving you the exact reasons why those cams sound the way they do, and telling you the specs can be tweaked to work better in his motor. I never claimed to be an expert, I toss out facts about the cams and let everyone digest the information how they see fit.

I had the small 219/233 Thumpr in my truck. Solid best of both worlds cam. That 109 LSA gives it a heavy and mean chugging idle, but past 2,000 rpms it smooths out and you get a solid low end torque curve and decent peak horsepower numbers without having to rev the snot out of it. Long tube headers are a great match and get a dyno tune. If your on a budget that cam works fine with the cheap LS6 Blue valve springs.

This is the camshaft I'm considering for my TM7. Everything else will be stock for now except for springs. Any other suggestions for an old broke guy?
