I don't tow often and I have the ability to pop in a towing tune with more fuel and less timing when I do. The wider lobe sep bleeds off some compression and also broadens the power band and smooths the idle to help me out at 1800rpm in 6th gear on the interstate. Although it does move the peak power up slightly.

No worries here cause yo **** aint goin to be here.
It is really surprising how slow a stock 4.8 with stock radix actually is. Nothing a few more lbs of boost didn't fix.

It is different pistons and I got some H-beam 6.125 rods since that is the only off-the-shelf piston I could get. I have another 6.0 crank so i'm selling the crank rods and pistons together balanced. See the classifieds if interested.

In a nutshell it is going to be everything you see in my sig below.
