nope, no 460s from the factory with roller cams...and i wouldn't put one in it if you aren't gonna build a race truck. the benefits of a hydraulic roller are small compared to the price you have to pay to get them. cams tend to start around 250 and the lifters can easily be more than that. for 450-550 dollars the conversion can be done, but for that you could buy a flat hydraulic cam, lifters springs, new intake and probably still have a couple bucks left over. just thought id throw out my 2 cents

I can't remember where I saw it, but a hyd. roller cam of equal specs to a hyd. flat tappet is worth over 50 horsepower. Granted for the extra cost, you could pop on a 100 shot of nitrous, just throwin in my $.02.
