go out to Comp's website and they have a nice selection of truck cams.
I did not see what trans you were going to use, that will determine how 'big' you can go with without having to spend another chunk of cash. A TC is a nice thing to have with anythign over a 220 intake duration (at .50). but if you are a manual set up you can get by with some stuff. You will want PCM tuning, which I should be able to handle for you even thru mail order unless you have a local tuner than can do it.

I will be putting in the G3 XFI261 HR15 here: http://www.compcams.com/Company/CC/c...csid=1097&sb=0
This will allow me to use stock TC and should add 20+RWHP after tuning. Will also be adding UD pulley and possibly shaving 317 heads for more compression to try and eek out 40-50more from all that....
