What are your mods? And power you made? (If you don't mind me asking) Sounds mean!

Do you guys think that cam will have enough advance ground in it? The Tbss guys are telling me I need something +3 or +4 die to the weight and low end torque we need.

I would have thought for a truck it would come back as a +3 or +4, but who the hell am I to question a guy like Geoff.

Where did he say he expected the shift points to be?

I think you're talkin about power levels high enough to warrant a bigger exhaust than that. When you get this all bolted up I'm willing to bet a 1 7/8" header kit and dual 3 or single 3.5" exhaust would give you some decent gains. I see people running that set up with mods similar to yours and they all claim to have gained from it.

Sounds like you would be a perfect candidate for what calspeed has planned for this spring...
