CAMel toe

Did you do anything else but put in the cam?

I have a Stage 2 Crane cam in mine and just like the others have said already, it is still the same old tired 22RE. It definitely helped but installing a new cam is not going to make you think you got a V6 or anything...

I liken it to this, you know how your truck runs good some days and bad on others?

My truck with the modified head with engnbldr SS oversized valves in it, RV springs, Crane Stage 2 cam and custom 2.25" exhaust runs like it's having a good day everyday. It still feels like the same engine to me that came in the truck, it just runs really good.

It's worth changing but be prepared to change everything around it too and have it just help out moderately.
