Tom,
You will feel your truck pull stronger at a lower RPM.
When installing them, make sure you have plenty of time because you have to move and disconnect a lot of things to install them. My installation took about 1 and 1/4 days because I was extremely careful not to break anything.

Good luck!

kota318,

HO cams, are from the 4.7HO engine, (which is actually an almost completely different engie except the block), that cam in the Jeep GC recent years.

Myself and others have seen good gains, dyno proven, from just using the cams, and often thje intake, from the stock 4.7 HO engine, into the stock 4.7 (non HO).

Long story short, these are for the 4.7's, two cams, (single overhead cam engine.)

Tom, the quick answer is YES. Many posts on this in the archives, places to buy, prices, istallation directions, etc. That's what got me to do them on my Quad Cab.
