Question in your opinion...

is 273 rwhp and 301 rwtq a little bit low for a 03 ex. cab 5.3, with edelbrock shorties, dynomax exhaust, hp tuners tune, vara ram intake, and a thunder racing cam (224 duration intk/exh, .561 lift intk/exh)?

I ran a 14.7 on stocck tires and suspension. I now have a 2400 stall but I can't launch good because it spins horribly. I'm looking at some lakewood traction bars and some Mickey thompson drags slicks.
