    Thanks! Ill get some pics up of the lines soon, looks like they will work great, just have to make sure clearance is good once the long tubes r installed

    I have a TR224 on a 112 LSA in the 6.0 in my big truck(99 1500 ECSB 9" lift 37" tires). I also have a 10.5" 3400 rpm stall converter. Runs great, ran a 13.0 on 31" tires. I will say that the 224 does fall off on the topend above 6k rpm.

    Would you go a different route?

    For my truck, I'd go with a cam that offers a little better topend. Prob something along the lines of a 226/230 or 228/232.

    For a mild build with a low-stalling converter, a cam like the TR224 would work great in a 6.0.

    Not tryin the jack the thread, but I was lookin for a cam too and it looks like we have similar lifted trucks with big tires and geared...But I don't really ususally wind mine up too high, usually just really hard take offs at the lights. Think that 224 would be good, or should I go a little more
