Default FMS cam questions

I have a stock rebuilt 5.3 and I'm wanting to put a 230/232 .595.585 112lsa f13 cam in it. Just wondering if it's too big for my stock 5.3

You should talk to Martin @ TICK performance. I think he could set you up with a perfect cam for your setup.

you would need more gear and a high rpm stall converter ,if it is a A4.with weight you need torque ,consider comp cam 54-455-11,or a small TSP cam.
