Looking for some more recent info. I have a irregulare "jump" in my oil pressure needle now. Likely a bad lifter or oil pump since i changed the sensor and it didnt change things.
I'm thinking a 408ci motor and a nice cam like what has been talked about here -
VHP 80
DUR @ .004" 272*/280*
DUR @ .050" 210*/218*
LIFT .551/.551
OVERLAP 46*
LSA 116*
Still do not want to do headers but I'm thinking LS3 heads and matching intake may be worth the cost/effort.
Ideas?

I have that Vinci cam. It won't be the magic massive torque adder that you're looking for but it should help some with towing, especially with a good custom tune. Now if you want a real torque addition, go with a roots blower and a similar cam. I took my dad for a ride in mine with my 5.3 and now he's putting a Magnusen in his 6.0. Sure, it's expensive... but boy is it worth it, especially for towing.
