I'll be stepping down if anything with my new setup but that's because of the turbo.

The truck will not be driven everyday. Probably once or twice a week max just about 3 miles round trip, in town only. I have been looking at the TR224, and really like it. What I've heard is that you find the cam that you like and go one step bigger. Is this right, and is this cam too big???

I got a 228/230 .584 .582. Sounds nasty and trannies don't like it. Been in for about 2 months and now truck is setting on jack stands with a blown trans

while I build one to handle it.
