I like the Summit Racing K1102 cam kit. Moderately priced, overall good reviews. I just bought one for my 86 k20 with Vortec heads.

Not trying to be captain obvious, but what is wrong with the stock cam for a stock truck?

Hey Eric,

Good question, well to begin the cam I took out was super worn, bearings were worn and starting to show that golden color, other than that I am just looking for a bit more power to help but dont want to have to do extra work at this time to the valve train. So I figure if I will put in a new cam itll be now with the rebuild.
