Just to give you an idea, I run a cam very similar to the MS3 but on a 6.0 with PRC 5.3 heads, 4.10's with a M6, and 11.5:1 compression. And even with my setup I wouldn't want a cam much bigger

Verdad Gallardo That Ed Curtis cam might thump a tad harder than the 228r cam, but i think you'll be hard pressed to actually hear the difference. It might make 5-10 hp more at best
