A 226 is going back in the Z71's 5.3L for max N/A.

I am glad you agree
I kept hearing nothing but negative about it will stall to high, It will not lock up, too much convertor. To hell with them! this truck is NASTY!There is one drawback though, my foot has gotton very , very, very heavy & causes me to not pass up many gas stations

I have two separate shift points set, normal is 6300/6400 & in tow haul mode 6800/6900.
I finally got the tune nailed down perfectly, I watched it this weekend & was sitting @ -1% ltft's. In pe mode I am a little too rich, around 1100 mv
