Have you got the new cam tuned enough to know which one you like better? the New or the Old.

Honestly they DD about the same except this new one is a pain to tune and won't idle worth ****. WOT the new one does pull harder up top.

Thanks man, it is Lt's no cats, single 4in into a dynomax bullet.. Sounds great at idle and cruising(other then being loud) and WOT, but part throttle, like when you kind get into it, has this horrable red neck crack lol.. I am prob going to change it out to a bigger case muffler, or put another one in to stop the thwop it has at part throttle..

That sounds really good John, actually sounds meaner than I thought it would in a 6.0...That whole setup seems spot on matched
