If you are mechanically inclined, you could get yourself way more bang for your buck and still make out on top. I run a cam similar to that, but my truck is SCSB. I wouldn't personally spend the coin on a crate motor unless I had to, but if it will cost you 4K with shipping and tuning that's not Terrible, especially if you have the supporting mods already

That's kinda why I asked if you were mechanically inclined, and you could do your own swap, bc I think that is bs what they are stating, I am RWD and have a bigger cam then stated and more mods and just edged out over that rwhp number when I dyno'd my truck a few years ago. But they are basically stating that "their package" will add 80hp with just a cam, they don't mention that they got their results on a 2wd truck with LT's intake, full exhaust... I don't remember if they said converter but still, sounds like false advertising to me, but it is possible to achieve those results with a spot on tune and supporting mods, oh yeah and a light truck lol
