I asked PatG about this. I had a Comp cam very close to the EPS cam he recommended.

You also have to run alittle more pushrod due to the smaller base circle EPS uses. (7.425 in my case)

Would like to see how the idle is on these with the lower lsa on most of them. I plan on running the truck torque 3 in a 6.0 this year but would still like some input on them.

Waiting on my Eps TT3 to come in and can give feedback on it in my 5.3 but can't compare it to the xer of similar size.
