Default lq9 cam
I have a 2004 escalade with a lift, the truck has a lq9/awd

I have an intake, 2800 stall and tsp longtubes and I'm looking to install a cam, what kind of cam should I go with and what supporting parts will I need.

I would stay smallish on the cam. 220/220 or so. What heads do you have on it?

That's a heavy ******... stay low 220's duration but get some healthy lift and low LSA to help that pig get moving.

DO NOT do an MS3 or TV2....

You could pay a little extra for a custom grind if you wanted... 222/224 on XER lobes with 112 LSA. Something of that sort id what I'd probably be looking at if I were you.
