370 truck motor
My 370 is very close to your build. I have PRC stage 2.5 5.3 heads (58cc), LS7 lifters, same rods, I have forged flat tops pistons with 1.7cc valve reliefs, stock MLS headgasket, LS6 intake, no Maf (sd tuned) with a cam spec'd by Pred Z at 230/232 .613/.595 with 111 LSA. I have ran it with my stock 3.23 gears and now with 4.10's with my S60. I will say that my LS7 clutch wouldn't hold it, but my Monster Level 3 does great with the setup.
I have not had a chance to dyno it yet seems I am always breaking something in (motor, clutch, rearend). It makes tons of torque and makes great power "under the curve" as the cam was designed to do. It is a very fun setup to use when running redlight to redlight.
I was given predictive numbers by Predator Z, but nothing definitive yet. I read that the LS7 clutch is good up to 450wrhp in these cars and mine would hold this setup.
I have ran a procharged, stock bottom end LS1 T/A on 8lbs of boost and was side by side with him with my LS7 clutch slipping. We both had 6m and 3.23 gears at the time. Also ran a modded Charger SRT8, did not end well for him doing pulls from 50-130. This was all in Missouri summer heat/humidity, similar to what you experience in Arkansas.
Only thing I would be concerned about is what gas is available in your area.

We can get 93 here. I'm running a spec stage 2 clutch. But this is going in a truck so isn't like it will hook anyway. I ran this clutch on my h/c/i ls1 and it held together fine.
I'll be using a Chrysler 9.25 with a Detroit true trac and maybe some 4.10's or 4.56's.
This size of cam should benefit me since I'll be moving so much weight. Though It should be around 4000-4200 lbs, and it being aerodynamic as a house.

Sounds fun. Let us know how it goes.
I have the Tru Trac in my S60 and really like it.
I just want it to be faster than a stock srt10 ram. Which was like a 12.7 truck with a good driver. But it weights 1000more lbs. So if I can make around 510 at the motor I'll be happy.
