the larger the duration the higher the powerband will be - to an extent


i agree, it COULD be used in a 6.0 and would be better suited in a 383 or 402/408 and its WAAAAAY to big for a 5.3
Thanks for understanding, guys. I know there is a point of diminishing/ no returns. I was just ribbing ya'll a bit...........
