Do you know if your heads have been milled? That would be some key information to selecting a new cam. You want to make sure you have enough piston to valve clearance for the larger cam.

They ate absolute speed 2.5 5.3 heads whatever spec they made them too. They were on the car when I got it, is there anyway to check?
