lq4 + 212/218 + 243s
My heavy slow truck got tuned today on a friend's mustang dyno.
05 2500hd, 212/218 cam, stock 243 heads, 8.1 injectors, e fans, stock everything else (including manifolds).
It didn't do anything impressive, but I didn't really expect it to. Eager to get it to the track and see the whole story.
And another unrelated picture just because I'm embarrassed of those stock wheels/tires.

Thanks guys. I'll have to let you know on the towing part of it, right now it's still on the small tires and the trailer is covered in snow!
Honestly though if it doesn't make a noticeable difference I'm probably going to need to re-gear. I've been hoping the extra power would act as a nice band-aid for the problem 4.10s and 35s cause.

I'd probably go 4.88 if I ever do it. It's on a 114 lsa, realistically I probably should've had a custom spec'd cam but I figured for the titanic and stock manifolds etc that the off the shelf comp would be sufficient.
