    Yeah, you're probably due for some upgrades. Cam and intake I'm sure would help it out. Those were pretty gutless and if it does have 3.21 gears that doesn't help at speed. I have a 4.10 geared 14 bolt full floater I'd make you a deal on if you get to that point. That would help it I'm sure.

    I was thinking cam and maybe intake. Just not real sure where I want to go I just want pulling power not for drag racing. I went with bigger cam and intake and fancy heads on my 350 to pull it (and that worked) but it's only a 1500 and the trailer over rides it.
