Lifted being a key word here.
Usually lifted trucks would be for more of the off road enthusiast, and would not want a higher stall speed or power in a higher range.

Hey man, whats up...

I dont know of any around here or on the site but I know two different guys running 212/218's with TB stalls in thier Z's.. they say they like it alot with the 35" tires and lift... better make sure that tranny can handle it though... you'll be rebuilding it very soon.

Im running a turbo400 with a 3500 streetfighter, cam is in my sig with 4.10's in my 2500hd on 40s. I have no idea what it would run since the straight axle swap because i cant run it at the track, but it will smoke the 40's pretty good.

The other thing I'd be thinking of is the stock 8.6" rear already loaded up with over-large tires, then adding more torque with a cam and converter. I'd be wincing ever time I did a 2WD launch with a setup like that. Please tell me you have a beefy diff cover and something other than a G80 in there, if not now, then in the works....

If you wanted to do a shift kit and convertor in that thing man let me know... I have put in a couple shift kits in 60's... doing that and some other smaller misc parts will help that tranny live longer behing that added torque and weight of those tires...I am sure between all of us we can make a day out of a cam and springs and everything too...
