Cam Help?

I have a 1999 sierra 4.8L with 4 10s, auburn locker, flowmaster catback,Short headers, knn intake,hypertech programer, with 20"wheels and would like to install a cam and stall but not sure what to look for. I don't have any expierience with cams and am lost. Thanks in advance for anyhelp :cheers:

Really guys? no one can recomend a cam for me? I would like to do this before I get my westers tune.

what are you building the truck for? do you go off roadin alot or for the street or show.

do you know what the stock cam size is?

I am building this for street. it is 2wd reg cab short box. As for cam size Not sure what comes stock in a 4.8L.

As I found when trying to identify what cam would be best for my rod, there are many considerations that have started to emerge in this thread.

The best advice I can give is to learn about it through searching the 'net for assistance in choosing the right cam. Comp and Crane may have some info, as well as here http://www.camcraftcams.com

There are gear ratios, rpm bands, piston, head, spring clearances, etc.

Comp cams also has an online cam help that allows you to fill out a form and they will recommend a cam for your application.

Happy hunting,
Nigel
