go with a 228 from thunder racing its really a good cam for a trucks the cam is the same i dont think there is any modifications on the internal engine i know there some people that say that these new engines are ls2 base but i dont think that is true because the ls2 base engine is 6.0 all aluminum engine not a 5.3 engine but if you dont think that the cam should work give thunder racing a call and they will tell you what will work if you dont have your tuner right there with you after the install the cam some needs to tune it because those new trucks have alot of crapthat governs the truck so tuner needs to be present after install
