Picking a cam for torque

Picking a cam for torque
I'm planning a kegger mod and second fix with hughes plate, harland sharp RR, new timing set and cam change.
Operating range is generally 1800-2600 almost all the time. I do wheel the truck and more torque everywhere would be a bonus. If anyone is running a cam for towing or torque (both) post up the brand and model # or the specs.
And does anybody know the stock cam specs for a 2000 dodge ram 5.9?
I'm open to suggestions, so get back to me.

I can't speak to how much torque this cam has YET but on paper it looks great. I have it in the 5.9 engine I have just rebuilt for my Jeep. This is the cam I am using "Competition Cams 206029 CRS262HR12 Camshaft" and the spec's are: 800-5000rpm; Adv. Dur. 262 Int./264 Exh.; Valve Lift .480 Int./.512 Exh.; Lobe Angle 112 deg.
I also added 1.65 rockers on the intake and 1.7 rockers on the exhaust for a little more lift. I'll know come springtime just what this cam is like once I get the Jeep back on the road.
You'll want to add a better exhaust and air cleaner to go with your other mods.

Here is what I found for stock cam specs:

No clue as to how accurate it may be.
