Best 5.3 cam upgrade for rock crawling

jccarter1 · Nov 24, 2014

Looking for some advice on cams(springs,rocker,etc.) for a stock 5.3 drive by cable in a trail rig. Specs are back halved jeep with 5.3/th350/4speed atlas 3.8 and 4.10 r&p running 44 tsl's. First off let me say I love the power this setup makes as it is the only thing I would like to change would be to gain more low in tourqe and move the peek hp and tourqe to a lower rpm with that said what items would be the best money spent to help achive this goal and anyone have any real world experience with this swap like who to order from, part numbers I want to keep drive ability and good throttle response also I do have the ability to get it tuned localy. Thanks in advance for any input

I'm in the process of cam swap myself same set up as you minus atlas. Call Texas speed they will get you set up. I called them for brand new cam,springs,push rods was 621.00 shipped best price I found.

Have you done the swap yet if so what do you think of it? What type of improvement did it make
