damn skeet lol... we can handle the beast... ive launched it from a burnout standpoint of 6500 rpm... the adrenaline rush....

i set limits for a purpose besides daily driver... no 600+ lift cam, no 4000+ stall, and ported my own heads... why? for pride and when kicking *** being able to brag about lift and stall... so far some 6.2 camaro ss and 6.2 truck with 4600 stall as victims...

cool deal man, post up the turn out which i know you'll like!! i always looked at it like this though your truck is 4k+ and you may need all the torque you can get but in the long run if you dont have the topend to finish then the torque becomes useless

thats why a setup needs to be planned drawn and flowed, match it all up and shes healthy in the long run !

the lack of down low torque is the result of a lack of nitrous

Yea that's not always true.. Went slower with the big cam, added more nitrous, still slower than the little cam. Even tho i did cut a better 60' with the big cam.. Just put a little cam back in mine.. I have torque.. Lol
