Well since I am doing the heads and now all this talk about cams, I am thinking of going bigger. Just kicking it around now, going to talk to Allen about it and see what he thinks.
I have some room to go bigger with lift and duration, just don't want to kill the low end. I might even end up with a stall. One thing leads to the next, now that the mod bug is back.

 

I would throw a the 224 that allen tuned and all the bs that is goign on about. Then throw a 2500ish stall in there and haul ***. You could still tow with it and it wouldnt kill the gas mileage too much. Go with a Fuddle converter he has the best warranty and the strangest vcovnerter on the market IMO. Good price too.

 

yeah I was thinking the same on the cam. I don't tow anything at all,How much was your converter from Fuddle? I was thinking 10.5 3 disk PI. Might as well bump up the c/r while the heads are off, and I was only going to swap heads LOL

 

500 from Fuddle then if you dont tow then jump up to a 3000 I still towed with the 3000 too and it didnt kill my gas mileage.

If I could keep my foot out of it that is.

 

I don't want to lose too much streetabilty.

 

The 3000 IMO was very streetable and drove fine. My truck is heavier than yours too and I didnt have a problem with it so I think you will be just fine with it.

 

I would like to try another cam with a different lobe and higher lift. Then I can go back to the stock rocker and get rid of the Harland Sharps. Maybe a Futral or a Thunder.

 

Why you want to get rid of the harland sharps?

 

They are 1.8s and they are noisy. I think the low lift cam leaves some on the table cause of the lobe design. I had to get this cam cause I already had the rockers,, but its time for change and they limit my choices of cams.

 

Get some jesel shaft mounts they are badass thats what Im going with on the 408 and they are extremely strong and they are 1.7 stock ratio.
