Okay, that makes sense.

Nice times! And I thought I was doing OK with a best of 8.966 @76.25 mph in the 1/8th. Guess that's a 13.9-14.1 in the 1/4.

14 on the hwy

11.5 towing

That was before the tuning, so not that great but Im going to keep checking it to see if the tuning helped.

marc_w: Do you got a little stall (2200-2400, or what not) in that thing with the 220/220?

Grats Candy, nows the time to upgrade to 24z, so you be one of the real pimpz.

Peace,
Josh

I swapped the 220/220 112 for a 210/218 112 - but I'm still on the stock converter.

Neither cam absolutely needed one... but the 220/220 was probably asking for one a little more than the new on is.

The 210/218 doesn't require one at all in my 6.0. I estimate that it's making more power than stock by 1,800 or so.

Sounds like Allen has gotten the Tahoe runnin' good. Are you sure you dont want him to build you a 402 or 408 to go in there? Then you could.. umm.. 'donate' the 6.0 to a lighter truck to see what it will do. I had some friends at Hub sunday and told me that yall were there. Congratulations on finally getting it dialed in.
