Hi All,
Welcome Home Hunter!
I hav-um 4wd Chevy Pick-up, TOO! 350 cu/300 hp with Performance Chip Torque Mid-Range Cam 3:43 gears. Shift Kit in Trans.
We have a '64 22ft Safari Land Yacht - Aluminum Tee-Pee. It has a BAD time on the hills. It would have a REALLY hard time out West. I like to hook-um up at highway speed - not 50mph!
In Oklahoma a Pick-up is a Caddie. 454 cu/425 hp with 4:11 ring Gear - shall pull you across ANY mountain - PLUS you can Hook-up a 30 footer and do a BURN-OUT!!
See this web site for - GM Performance - www.paceparts.com.
Everyone I know says a Big Ford Power Stroke will - Out Pull ANYTHING made to date and it WILL do a 4 wheel Burn Out if tuned properly.
Hope this helps,
Jim Weston
