Anything? I know it was kinda cold last night. I was going to go but last year I went towards the end of the season and the track was so cold I couldn't get traction.

Sorry I haven't had a chance to post, well I went and times weren't good, something is wrong with my stall so I need to replace it. All my logs from the track were perfect. the only explanation is got to be the stall

Im not surprised you didnt see the desired results. That cam definitely needs a stall convertor to work properly. That subject was beat to death here about a year to 18 months ago. Everyone installs the big cam and is disappointed because the truck doesn't run as well as it should. You moved the rpm range of the engine up by installing the new cam. You need to install a torque convertor that will compliment it or you will not see the gains. You could possibly run even slower then u did before. The torque convertor is the most overlooked item in many builds.

I have a stall, pro torque 4400, but I spoke to Bill and he says that won't work well with this
