theres guys with alot more power running 10 bolts, and there 2wd, im sure one can take abuse with awd

They can be built to last especially if you take care of them. but nitrous is hard on everything. hey if doesnt last you can always go bigger...

I forgot about the AWD thats much easier on the 10 bolt. in that type of situation it will probally hold.

What is the stall speed of your converter going to be?

I like the specs of the FTI StreetSweeper, 228/232 .6XX/.6XX 111 lsa. https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...er-cam-483349/

The TSP 228R is also a good choice for a 6.0, imo. My opinions are based off having a TR224 in my 6.0 and how the engine starts losing steam in the higher rpm...
