I considered 4.10s but I don't wanna blow off tires on street thru 1st, maybe 2nd.
Guys like yourself are running a very similiar combo to what I plan on. I wanna run that 212/218 but I may / may not do the 1.75s. I did pay for them tho.

LS6 cam or a GT2-3, 7, or 11, are only cams I'd consider a change to if I ever go that routeof deviating away from my current choice. I asked Comp when I got it , I want 1 step over stock & could work nice w/. NA or FI. That's the cam they set me up w/.

I got a ride in slowfive0's AWD SSS w/. Radix, & I thought mine was a slug afterward. He said in a RCSB it'll be incredible torque & fun.

Just curious, any idea what kinda mileage do u get w/. your combo. Cty or Hwy?

cool man! it will be a beast for sure with the built trans, ect. FWIW i have an eaton LSD and have never had a problem. I say tru track due to you dont have to buy LSD additive, or worry about worry about rebuilds, and they are normally cheaper.

Well, the 2600 converter makes way more sense now and I agree with not getting carried away with gears with the Radix. Even though there are possibly better options available now as far as superchargers go, the little 112 will still perform admirably and beings you’ve sat on it all this time, it is definitely time to be able to enjoy it. You have all the makings of a pretty quick little truck now and good enough parts that should allow you to enjoy it for awhile.

Possible better options: In my eyes:2...1900 & 2300. I wouldn't touch anything else personally. Unless it was a turbo.
I just don't have time for constant fiddledickin, cause my life gets real hectic in a heartbeat for months at a time. I needed a no compromise, bolt on kit in a box that was reliable & could haul the mail.

W-h-a-aaaaa-t? Whataya mean?!?

For those wonderin, my ulimate goal is 12.0 for a reason. That's pretty stout for most any vehicle, let alone a 4625 w/. me in it, aerodynamic brick.

I was told by my bro, who BTW has never been down a strip, that I'd never beat his 01 Z06 w/. my truck no matter what I did to it. His car is 385HP w/. only a Donaldson filter & CAGS. Every report he's read says they ran from 12.4-12.8. Only 1 that may've ran faster was GMHTP. I wanna say they ran 12.1-2. Or was it 11.99 stock, I'd have to go thru my back issues to confirm or deny. That "Hot Shoe "was Evan Smith. He gets unreal #'s as does Thad Juncter from GM. He's not either of those 2 people.

Long as I can put it down. I don't need to be the fastest on the road, just faster than most. Or faster than the person next to me.
I wanna destroy stock Titans & Tundras, most lightly modded Stangs, imports & of course...his Z06.

Don't forget, that 12.4 or so is on street tires. If he has drag radials and knows how to launch and shift, he could see high-high 11's.

4600lbs ain't that heavy. You should still kick his butt with your plans !! I weighed 4140 with me in mine in street trim.
