love rolling through old threads. The time and knowledge that followed was awesome.

I still loved my 212/218 "lowlift". My '04 1500 2wd had a wonderful life full of N/A growth. Started stock swapped lq4/4l80e, found a bad lobe on stock cam and went with the 212/218. Made 338/358, stock 3.73s. Ended life (sold it as it aged) at 400/400 on a 3200 stall and 4.56s.

I currently have a 1500HD i plan to replicate my old build. Just a nice 212/218, 243 or 706 heads, stock 2700 stall, HD2 kit and I'm golden. Learned my lesson on going overboard lol.
