Truck has just over 60k on it, long tube headers and cat back exhaust.
Intended use, mostly cruising and car shows, with a few runs down the strip mostly just for fun. I won't be racing on a regular basis.
I'm considering a cam swap. I think I mostly want that sweet choppy idle, a little performance upgrade would be good, but I don't want to completely destroy the fuel mileage, or transmission.
I'm looking at the MMX and Texas Speed (Comp cams?), plus Moes sells one.
Other than the cam and non MDS lifters (newer ones with larger roller bearings) solenoid plugs, gaskets, head bolts, and springs/seals, what else do I need?
Push rods? Do I really need the cam phaser?
I will swap a 6.4 intake at the same time, so I know I will need a tune.
Anything I'm forgetting?
