Pulling 9K with that relatively small cam in summer heat is going to cause some problems, hope you dont plan on towing too much with it anymore.

 

Actually I think the motor is going in my s10.

 

Damn that is going to be nasty, what will be going back into teh rcsb?

 

cammed 5.3 or a mild 6.0 if I can find a block cheap

 

with the stock 6.0 and a cam in the 230's how was the low to mid. I know it will be an animal on top but I'm most interested in the off idle power. I tow a lot too and I really want a package that will peak the tq well below 5k and have a minimum of 400fwtq at 2k. Right now I was thinking something 218/222 110lsa. I was hoping to get close to 500/500 at the crank with the same heads and intake, and around 10.5 CR. Am I completely dreaming or is something like this even possible?
Thanks for your thoughts.

 

I was really impressed with the low end when my converter was locked. It would still put you in the seat just rolling on the throttle.

I don't think your dreaming. I think your cam choice is pretty conservative though. Cubes eat cams!! The difference is night and day with my 6.0 to 408 The 408 idles like stock 800 rpm 22* of timing the 6.0 laughed if tried that

 

*cough cough* he ain't kiddin'
