Default HO cam increase

I'm looking at geting cams for my 4.7 raider. Does anyone know what the power gains in the HO cams are? Dealership wants 220.80 each. Are those the way to go for the money? Also, what other parts are needed for the install on those? i saw lash caps. Any seals/gaskets?

Thanks.

The H.O. is rated 30hp above the standard 4.7L. 20hp of that comes from the camshafts.

No worries. H.O. camshafts are a good deal when you can find them. They are a direct swap and don't require beehives, lash caps or custom tuning.
