What do you want it do? Stump puller, track star, fun streetable cam? QC or RC? Lifted, lowered, stock? 22's, 20's, 17's? What size tires? What kind of exhaust? Headers? Do you want to do heads to really set off a cam or stay stock? We need to know a lot more info because there is no "one" best cam.

2 door or 4 door? 4wd or 2wd? gear ratio? what mods do you already have? do you have a tuner like the SCT that can be custom tuned, or a canned tune like superchips? are we replacing springs and rocker gear or do you want something that will work with stock?

heres some cams to look at
