Alright so with a stock bottom end 6.0 2500 Silverado what size duration and overlap would you recommend for a daily driver with a gt45 turbo? Looking for best options for cam valve spring and push rod change

Also must add on its basically completely stock motor and trans so just looking for something to wake it up a bit
Best to call a cam guy, vs letting some guys on a forum guess for you. If you want it right, get the right cam, from someone who actually knows. My go to guy is Geoff Skinner at EPS(engine Power Systems). I have bought hundreds of cams from him, he delivers every time

its a turbo on a stock engine, so use whatever cam you want as long as it's not a stock one or too 'big'.
I would recommend a 'sloppy stage 1 or 2' because
a. proven to be reliable in a daily driver config
b. won't kill valve springs or valve guides (low lift slow ramp) same as a
c. plenty of lope if thats ur thing
d. cheap $221 to $250
e. many versions, Jegs, elgin, TFS, etc... same design has been proven
f. proven to make the 1000rwhp on a 6.0L for $221

I have a brt stage 2 turbo cam and I really like it. I also have the lq4. It sounds good and makes good power. I have had a sloppy stage 2 cam also and the btr sounds a little better at idle and seems to make a little more top end power.
Thank you for everyone?s input I appreciate it
