Hey guys, I was thinking to give some vitamins at my baby. 2005 hemi 1500 with Gibson headers and cold air intake only. I was thinking about to change the cam and push rod and tune the truck with diablo predator deleting egr and cats and obviously adding some more vitamins. Considering that it’s my daily, what do you guys think is better the comp 260 or 268 with 6.1 pushrod?

All around daily the 260 (or similar), especially if you tow regularly.

I never used it for towing, I just love the truck and I use it like car. It needs only a little bit more power, specially in over drive is like a dog.

I don’t think the 1500’s had 3.73, I think there are only 3.55 or 3.92. I had the comp 260, it was a great cam and it felt like the truck came alive after 4200rpms, it would really start to pull. Paint it up with a good convertor like a 2800 stall and a trans tune, it makes it real fun to drive

I’m like I said I’m not sure but I’ll check it our. The converter wasn’t part of my plan but is a really good idea too. Thanks for your input
