Default Cam Help!!

Looking for someone who has used Comp Cam part number 54-455-11. It is a 5.3 truck cam with .604/.610 lift, 215/224 duration at .050, 112 lobe centerline, 107 intake centerline. It says it is for heavy applications and runs a lot of torque.

I haven't personally used that cam but with those specs it will defintely be a "stump puller..."

had it but did not install it.use pac 1518 springs,and harden push rods.I feel it would make 380-390 rwhp with full mods,ls6 intake+.it will make good low rpm torque,at a low rpm.it don't need too big of a stall,good gas mileage.you will need some DRs for hooking up.
