To high in the RPM band for our trucks to take advantage of.

Replace with some good internals, and wind our engines to 6500 or so they might be good.

Pretty much...

It will help 4200rpm and up, which isn't much before we shift. Not sure if it hurts any at all down low or not.

I talked to blow by racing earlier and they said they won't hurt any he said they have heard from other shops that they give around 38 extra hp because the displacement is bigger in the 5.4 but they did say it won't hurt

If there is no negative effects down low, but gain of power 4000rpm up this might be a neat poser mod for us stock shortblock blower guys.

I am thinking about installing the Comp Cams EFI NSR stage 2 cam. Let me know how your truck performs after the install.

Well I talked to livernois motorsports they have comp, frpp hot rod cams, and also have there own brand and the installer said in all trucks they do they install frpp cams he said they are easier to install and don't have to add cam phaser limiters and he said they work great in the heavy trucks, he also stated that the frpp cams hit harder then then comp and he said they won't affect the durabilty and drivabilty so now I'm sold on the frpp cams and he also said the great thing any ford dealership will install these since they are a ford product

Please keep us updated, I want to buy a pair but don't want to lose any low end torque.
Where can I look at the FRPP cams?
