With the cutout closed it will actually dead hook in 2nd gear on up. Was not expecting that after the first truck my friends built would get sideways in the 3rd. Made same peak hp, but the other truck was a 5.7, so made tq quicker.

It only took once for me having to do the manual cutouts to order some race ready cutouts.

Very. Truck pulls pretty good with the 4.10s driving around town and in 6th on the hwy. I don't have to drop down a gear to pass anybody. When you go above 4/4500ish rpm it feels like you hit the kit. Pulls HARD all the way to 6800 and the power is there to go higher. Thinking about moving it up to 7k.
