You're going to HAVE to get a tune if you want a bigger cam. It'll run without it...But it'll run crappy and get horrible mileage.

+1 If you want to get everything out of your new cam

More torque or horsepower? Where do you want it?

Why don't you want to get it tuned? A good tune by it self will net you a lot more than a cam without a tune. A good tune with a cam and you will have an animal.

In that case Mr. Vet, what cam would do good in my truck?

I refuse to give cam recommendations. If you look at any of my post, I will always direct you to the professionals...Comp, Lunati, etc. Way too many variables when picking a cam and I also don't recommend anyone picking a cam because someone on a internet forum or a buddy, buddies buddy, a guy that use to build engines, (get the point) said it would work.

There are some very good LS cam companys out there too. Also, when I say professionals, I do NOT mean a tech from summit or jegs.
