I rate them 3000-3200. It depends on weight and HP curve where they will flash to. So if it is a stock LS, then ~3000, modified LS in a truck ~3200.

I just ordered one today the 278mm ,3000-3200.Im looking forward to this cause a couple years ago i used a 2500 TCI for a short time,and it felt good much less what another 500-700 rpm is gonna feel like.Thanks Chris great customer service,will i need any tuning just throwing this in and working right ?

How much would you want for one of these if I were to come by and take a tour of the shop/pick it up in person

I know you will love it. Tuning is usually not required, but you might want to tweak some shift points a little after you drive it some. Thanks again and let us know how you like it.

It is a good alternative if you are on a tight budget. But you will get better performance from a custom built converter for you setup. But it should be enough to eliminate any problems the cam might cause.

We can knock off a few bucks if you come by. But let me know when you are coming to make sure I have one for you.
