I'm doing a little research on cams. I think I need larger throttle body and a different cam to move the power up, closer to 6000 rpms. But I must say this motor has "lots" of torque at 1500 rpms. Pulls like a freight train to 5500. I have to shift at 5500 - 5800 rpms. I had to change the way I drive. I can now cruise at 1300-1500 easily in 5th and I do not have to downshift to speed up. Very nice. I'm going to drive it till winter and then decide if I want to change the cam. df
