I doubt you would be able to tell the difference between the two, honestly. One has a tiny bit less duration, and an equally tiny amount more lift... but both are really quite close to one another. I think I actually like the Tick cam a little bit more, personally. The two are so close, I would just go with the one that has the most lift (even if the duration is slightly less).

With a stick car, to big of a cam can take some of the enjoyment out of driving, lol-the Summit "ghost" cam might be a better choice.
I had the Sum. stg 2 cam in my 6.0, with the converter locked, much like a stick car, it was dead in lower MPH.
Just my thoughts, your results may vary.

thank you that's what I was afraid of with the summit where it's a stick car and just a 5.3
