Looks good! Sounds like a nice setup. I'm in the same boat but am waiting on my AFR heads and still choosing a cam.

Looks like a pretty nice setup. You plan on running it at the track, if so what do you expect? Should be in the low 13s in that truck. Very nice indeed.

2500 stall seems a bit on the low side for that cam. If you are looking for mid/high 12s your combo will have to be spot on. On street tires im 12.7 with much less weight than you and a similar motor.

Make sure you double check that The machine shop put the cam bearings in the right spot, and check all your clearences, my machinest put my rear cam bearing in wrong and toasted my cam and main and rod bearings and he didnt stand behind it, hope everything goes together good,

they are 2.02 1.60, you and pick a set of vortecs for about 100-200 and get them rebuilt vortecs have 170cc intake runners versus about 150cc for some stockers, mine are 200cc, you know what size cam your ganna go with? make sure you get the right springs for the cam.
