Going to a .04 gasket is going to get you out of your optimal quench range if the pistons are .008 out of the hole. Im not sure why you are worried so much about low end with a light rcsb and a 4K stall. Like I told you back when you were first putting this thing together these things love big cams. Look at teh dyno graphs on tech for strokers the TQ curve is very nice even for a truck and with added rpm potential you have much better shift recovery as Im sure you know. PM CamKing he can provide with some dyno graphs Im sure. He ground my cam and he has dyno results to back up what Im saying. Due to my results I went with an even bigger cam maybe I will find out it is too big for my setup but I dont think so. Either way that truck is going to move the hell on out even with that "baby" cam. Do ya'll think you will be able to keep it hooked on the track?

I hear spring clamps are the ****
You might be surprised, alot of guys are making big power over on tech(average too) in some 408s with good heads and the FAST intake(which the vic jr has shown to walk away from up top) with a decent sized cam. Of course dyno racing only does so much. When is it hitting the track next?

I was kinda thinking of those Slide-a-links.It's going to the track pretty soon probably. It probably won't have the new tires or heads by then, but will probably have the Ultimate 10 cover, new u-joints, u-joint caps, and saftey loop. I am sure that a bigger cam would help some, but unless it picked up 4 tenths or so, I couldn't justify getting him to spend $400 for that. My obsession with torque is based on what my goals are for the truck as a daily driver and what I am looking for on the 60' times which with new tires and heads and all the other drivetrain stuff listed above I'll be dissapointed if it doesn't get low 1.6's or Ideally 1.5's.

Hopefully he girdle will stiffen it up enough not to shear the ring gear. Parish put alot down on his truck but he was running 4wd of course too. Time will tell, the comp slide-a-links look good. I dont like the cal-tracs due to the noiseyness of them. If you have acess to a welder you could get some heim joints and make your own track bar. PM sent onebadrubi.
