Old thread I know, but I just noticed that I never did update. I ended up with the 6.0, dart 205 heads and the tiny lunati 217/223 cam but I switched to a 6 speed instead. This cam is very very mild on the 6.0 and has loads of low end torque. It will idle all the way down to 450 if I play with the tune. I checked it with a degree wheel and although it says it is supposed to be +4 it ended up +0 probably due to timing chain stretch or tolerances, I left it that way.

It made 368 to the tires with a rich tune, I think it will go 380+ now.

Now that the stock converter is out of the way, I want to go with a 228/232 cam or something close.
