2.3 is pretty normal with the limited mods you have. Some poeple get 2.2s and a few 2.1s with those mods. Try pulling the spair, tailgate, and a few other things to drop weight. Also try stalling it up to @1200rpms to bring it closer to the power band of the line. What times are you running now?

What about the freeway

Otherwise ... it seems about normal.

not much higher than you are now. I run about a 3,000 stall now and if I can keep my foot out of the gas, which I can't. I get about the same gas mileage, and I only run about 2600 rpms at 70mph.

I honestly can't think of 1 drawback to a 3000 or smaller stall. No loss of drivability, can still tow, same highway gas mileage. Then step on it and it'll smoke the tires into second gear.

How much and where
