Which suspention was alot of my problem with my ext cab 5.3 so with a good tire i might could get a 3200-3400 to hook on this rcsb. I like this cam profile and very interested in it. Let me do a little more research..

instead of changing stalls which would incur an additional cost of stall, tranny removal, etc, why not work on suspension? clamping overload springs (like $20), or installing rubber snubbers on overload springs (like $20), or caltracs (like $400 lol)? just some thoughts which i think would be more beneficial overall than swapping stall. of course ultimately up to you but i like to research like you every option....

No my suspention problems were on my 2005 EXT CAB, my ex wife totalled that truck a few years ago. I dont have suspention problems now on my RCSB . Annd I have cal tracs coming. So do you think i could get away with a 3200 stall and this cam on say 200 shot??
