well my buddy with a 5.3, 4.11 gears and a bigger cam gave me run today and I felt like I should have been able to take him.
My truck has 3.73 rear and 285/75/16 mud terrains, the only thing I can think of is my the size and weight of my tires are slowing me down, check out my mods in my sig and tell me what you think I should do?
I'd say the cam is holdin ya back. Just do a 150 shot and don't tell him lol.
thats a very small cam for a 6.0 and big tires make a HUGE difference.....
His gears and smaller tires ate you up. Every body here says a 224 is small for a 6.0, yours is tiny.
well Ive been on the hunt for some new rims and since now I have my new Circle-D 3200 stall in I will go with a bigger cam in the near future.. way bigger like 230-230ish
oh and emmerich 5.3 the nitrous is on its way
Lol bad ass!Quote:

With forged pistons just do a power adder and be done with him!
I think I will do that, my buddy said I can borrow his set of tires if I dont burn them up seeing as there brand new, I will try as tempting as it is. Oh and P.S. has anyone tried the GMPP ASA cam?
Some like the ASA but IMO it has no place in a truck. Without knowing more about it I'd still say the cam in your sig is waaaay better.
I think the low lift is the killer. For the price and amount of work, why not maximize your efforts.
Just in case anyone was looking for it.
