You need to contact PTE(Patrick). He can give you a very good take on all the above.

And yes the cams in the 5.5L F/I engine are different than the cams in the 5.5L N/A engine according to PTE's research.

VRP has a set of cams in the works. It is a custom grind to our spec. They are in production.. 2 samples are being made to be checked to make sure clearances and everything else are ok.. We should have them in 2 weeks.

They will be higher lift, with a change in overlap and change in LSA. The cam will be slightly lumpier but nothing too radical. It will be a complete drop-in replacement. Based on the setup of this cam we suspect idle will need to be raised from 550RPM to around 700RPM. This can be done using Star Diagnostic very easily.

I dont have a firm price yet but I estimate $3,000 for the pair. This price will change depending on how many sets we run.
