Welcome to DF!

Are you getting any codes?

No codes at the moment9

See which cylinders aren't firing.

I had a similar experience before on another vehicle (not a ram). Turned out that the cam the shop gave me was for a different model. Make sure you got the right cam P/N for the truck and not for the other applications of the 5.7. I had to tear the car apart to find out.

The first thing to try is to turn off the MDS override function.

If that fixes the problem you will need a tuner to turn off the MDS permanently. That or check for a vacuum leak on the intake some where.
