with stock heads and intake, with this comp cam (224/230 .581/.588 112lsa) longtubes, 3000 yank converter in a 60E 4.10 gears, and a nelson mail order tune i went from 259 rwhp stock, to 341rwhp a gain of 82 horses, this cam is great for a 5.3 and its in my daily driver, my setup is different now but thats what i originally had and i know a few guys that ran the same cam and was very happy with it. Good luck with your selection. Oh and i was running a crappy flowmaster 40 series at the time of those numbers, i use hptuners now so if you need some help with the tune for it lemme know ill get it out to you unless you just order a tune.

Hey lamborado that would be great i would love a copy of that tune sounds like were pretty close except for the 3000 stall. I currently have flowmaster 40's but I am looking for something that flowes better and maybe has a better sound what do you reccomend?
Also any one else reading whats your opinion on exhaust?

3600 sounds like it may be a little too much this is mostly a daily driver. And is there really that much difference in the expensive torque converters and the less expensive ones besides the name on it?

I drive mine alot and the 3600 is no porblem at all. If you don't get at least a 3200 you'll wish you had. And YES the higher dollar stalls are better search TCI on the board if you wanna see how many people of regreted going cheap.
