Re: geared way too low
Just seen where you live in Jacksonville, FL. My dad is in Saint Marys, GA at this time spending time with my niece and nephew. That's a hop skip and a jump away.....
But him and my mom are leaving Monday I think.

Re: geared way too low
Yeah , Saint Marys is right up the road. There is a ton more into building these setups then i thought. Sounds like replacing this cam with a stock one could solve a lot of problems. Also, could the torque converter in the truck now be worn out? Causing the higher revs. trying to do 55MPH? I'm thinking I might have to pull the heads to have some work done. This might be the time to replace the cam. We will see. The budget is not growing but the work needed is! Now if it would stop freaking raining I could get some work done.
