Who is or has ran a cam in the 6.0, what did you think of it, did it help the low end power? I know it is said to take the power band past 4000rpms. I really only care what it does on the low end.
Thanks.

Theres a colt in my blue truck. It def helped spool up. Low and mid range came up quite a bit as well.

I also installed a colt cam on a 6.4 i just recently remanned for a customer of mine.

It was the only thing i did other than studs. I will tell you it is the coolest snappiest 6.4 running only sct canned tunes ive driven!!

I would give you a big green light on a cam!!!!

I haven't had a chance to get into the inside of the 6.0, I've done heads so all top parts, no mid and bottom. What's involved in a cam swap on one of these 6.0, I have rebuilt gassers and cams, but not on these. I was told that it is not like a gasser, that engine needs to come out and need to take apart bottom section to change cam. Is that true, or is it like a gasser take top part of engine apart to get to lifters, front section and remove cam. Thank for any info.

Not true.
I'm installing my Colt Cam next week.
Cam def helps...we have done builds with and without cams with the same parts (except cam) and its a whole other truck.

Call, and talk with Geoff Bardall with Colt Cams.

He will make you a cam specific to what you want. (Pulling, racing, street...whatever.)

I am running his cam in my engine, and it's been great.

That's what heard, just wanted to make sure. I don't think I want to get into that mod unless I was taking engine out for bottom end mods (rods,pistons....). A cam will have to wait either for race truck I would like to build or if I blow the bottom end of the truck I have now, which might happen way before race truck.....:evil
