You can leave it the way it is. I ran the HO cams with my Superchips and they went well together. I would say next mod go with SCT and custom tune. Hemifever can really tune a motor to maximize a cam swap.

I would really like to see what an 08 manifold would do, and I would go with an SCT as well. And of course, a Fastman wouldnt hurt.

Im not sure if I would touch the stock exhaust manifolds right away. Everyone says they flow pretty well, and you may be able to save some money if you find the stockers do just fine.

Im really contemplating doing a SCT for my truck just so I can run it to the max, but Im still on the fence.

Blown,
Do you know at what RPM range the HO cams add the 20 rear wheel HP ? Is it low enough RPM to help/not hurt towing performance ?
