Just food for thought.... The heads on my truck have bigger runners and valves than 243's, but my CR is in the low 10's... My Throttle response is NICE, my part throttle is great, ask anyone who has been in my truck it will rev damn quick, not to mention it is pretty quick compared to other 4.8s on this board, plus i get 22mpg on the highway.....
anyways, it is nothing compared to a 6L, but for what it is i can't complain...

Your heads have 2.02"/1.575" valves 243s have 2.00"/1.55", your heads have 220c runners stock 243s have 217, hardly any difference at all. I think your truck benefits alot from the CR bump and that 110lsa.

I dunno about that but the cam was the key part. My previous cam 222/224 112+2, was a dog at part throttle, when I switched to the 108+2 cam, the low end/part throttle was so much betterprobanly because the increase in dcr. I also started shifting alot higher probably due to the +1* of overlap

What RPM are you shifting at? What heads did you have on when you were running the 222/224 cam.
