Damn. Im glad I havent purchased a tranny yet. That's a great price and takes care of all the apprehension I had about getting things modified. I think there are going to be quite a few more trucks running around on 80's in the near future.

That still wouldn't work for us AWD guys though would it?

I custom design the camshafts for the trucks. One of the main reasons we dont run a lot of duration on the 4.8/5.3L is due to fact that they are pritty much slower then a stock truck out of the hole. Unless they obviously run some type of stall converter. I experianced that several years ago when screwing with ZO6 cams etc. I really didnt like the bottom end of those cams. So we really dont run to many of our cams below the .550" mark for torque and bottom end usues.
I still have to call the company about converting over to the AWD.

I am pretty new to the cam info andstill trying to learn about them so excuse the somewhat newbie questions. What would be the benefit of using a reverse split cam than a regular cam? Why would you use one?
