some guy is gonna pop up and say they yanked a gen 6 7.4L out of a motorhome and say it had a flat tappet just to mess with you. thats why I Specified Vortec 7.4L
16mpg, thats pretty good.
seems like that cam was made for the 96-00 7.4l motors, the lift is much lower then the one I was looking at.
You're right, I should have been more specific. To my knowledge all L29 and L21 motors came roller.
Keep in mind that 16 mpg was on fairly flat highways at no more than 65 mph. When I get into a lot of hills the average is probably 14, and if I go much over 70 it starts dropping off fast due to 4.10 gears and stock tires size.
Did you mean the one you were looking at had lower lift? Honestly, the one you're looking at seems like a good option for decent performance and good low end torque. I'm having issues with attaching pictures. The cam you link had .285" lobe lift, the one I mentioned had .301".
