So I guess the question is are there any performance camshafts for the 4.7? All the ones I find are 5.2/5.9. These sizes don't do anything for me, I was looking for something in the format of ***/*** deal. Thanks for your help though.

there are a few places, but lucky us, cause there are 2 camshafts, we end up paying exactly twice the price....

here are some links

i didnt know they made a 4.7 HO... even still, HO is usually only good for 10hp and 15 lbft.. won't help much on throttle response or high end torque like these other camshaft kits.... and a wrecked 4.7, who knows what the PO did to that engine, maybe they wrecked cause they drive like a dumb***

The Jeep GC 4.7 HO engine is what i was going to mention, figured yall know about it. Thats how mopar pushes the upgrade for the 4.7. Tech, its just the cams and intake manifold so its not a true HO, the ho being crank etc etc, but ive heard great things about the man/cam swap. I apologize for not being able to go too deep into detail but im pimpin a 5.9 and have not studied my books. Although i would love to know about everything. Here's some insight on the mentioned swap i found. http://www.dodgeboy.net/durango/47ho/index.htm
