I was looking at DOA's camshaft and was just curious if anybody has these in their trucks....Or any other aftermarket camshaft. It seems like these would net a pretty big horsepower gain.

Ive also done the cams, P&P heads and full 2.5" exhaust. Theres a power gain there, but I still get outrun by the 3.4L 3rd gen. If I had to do it again, I would spend the money on something else. Not enough oomph to offset the cost.
Maybe I should approch the answer like a lot of magizines do.
Either way you cant go wrong. DOAs product is good no doubt. You will see performance gains. With my setup (automatic transmission, 30" tires but geared for 28") my 0 to 60 time corrected for the slightly off speedo compared to what others have posted is 13.5 seconds. Others that have posted is like 17 seconds. So thats almost a 4 second increase.
The bottom line is that when I compared this to a 3.4L, I wished I had saved my money.
