Stock motor that lived that long with that many miles and that much boost? You need to be buying lottery tickets.

Why not get a custom grind? I know a few people who can quote you a custom cam grind.

Mainly didn't go with a custom grind for this motor because it isn't going to be in the truck forever. I just wanted to try something different this time around with the 6.0 to see how it'd do. I'll definitely get someone more knowledgable than myself to spec a cam for me when I built a 408 sometime in the next year or so.

Damn you were feedin that thing alright... it musta been fast as hell!!!

I had no idea you were running that kind of boost. I figured with the compression of the LQ9 10 lbs was the most people were really willing to go.

How much boost are you running? I would love to get my truck into the 11s. Might happen when I move to ND next year. Plenty of -500+ DA days. Lol

Probably going to run around 10-12 psi on street tune and 15+ at the track.
