I know the 05's are known for weak rear ends, so I'm hesitant about putting in a 3200 converter... but would I see an "Meaningful" gains in ET if I just go for a good cam... I know I cant go to big because of my stock converter, if I did go for a cam any suggestions ... keeping in mind I'm using a stock converter and drag radials (best 60' is 1.84)

Thanks

Rear ends are not that weak. It is not like you are dumping on it with a M6. I had mine stalled with a supercharger at over 550rwhp and never had an issue.
