Part Number for the cam referenced above is "14097395" - .431/.451 lift w/1.5 rockers, 196/206 duration and 109 LCA.
That's kinda what I thought... I wanted to et some more input before sticking the LT4 cam into this rebuilt short block that I am putting in this weekend. I should have trusted my instinct that anything originally made for a Corvette wasn't right for a big 4x4 truck...I will look into another cam. Anyone looking for an LT4 cam with around 1k miles on it?
