Default Thinking about putting a TR220 in the 6.0

How do you guys think the tr220 would perform in the 6.0? When I took
the stock 6.0 out to the track it ran a 8.7 (1/8) in the heat. The only mods are ls6 intake,cai,lt's,3k stall,and 4:10s. I really want to stay with a smallish
cam with this motor, let me know what you guys think!

its great in my truck, power pulls to around 6200, and in od and tc locked at 1700 rpm i can give it a little gas without unlocking the tc and gain speed pretty easily.

shift points were 6300 and 6000 . . . pulled all the way

It was more for bottom end torque. I could stomp just about anything from a dead stop to 3rd gear

again, there are better ones out there. I've done several swaps with the low and high lift 212/218. Its an all around cam

I would think a 220 cam would make good power in you're motor
