    Which Cam and Lifters Did You put in Your 5.7?

    I need to do a top-end rebuild soon and I would like to get your feedback on what cam/lifters you chose to rebuild the top-end of your 5.7L? Please list; 1. What you used? (i.e. Comp Cam *** with OEM Delphi lifters) 2. Did you keep MDS? why or why not? 3. Where you bought it? 4. Why you chose it?
