Looks like I not only spoke too soon, but got screwed over. What turned into a "2" day job ended up being 6 days. Not only did I NOT get the can installed, neither was the intake so I was without a truck for 6 days all for a tuner swap. I was also lied to about the entire situation. Pretty f*%ked up.

Just be thankful these guys didn't end up putting a cam in that is not right for your engine.... probably had no idea what you had and the difference between the past generation of Hemi and the new.

There are very few places I would trust to install and tune a cam on my VVT truck. They are: High Horse Performance, Inertia Motorsports or Arrington. Looks like Inertia Motorsports is located in Texas. I wouldn't mess around any place else. Very few people can tune a VVT Hemi 5.7 cam and get a gain out of it that is anywhere near worth the effort. FYI: HHP is near me and was around 5k for parts and labor. Its not easy and not cheap. There is a huge thread on here with a cam install by Arrington that took months and would have cost a BUNDLE if the OP didnt get a break for being a test truck. Here is the thread:
