Hey yall. Been awhile since I posted but I have been following along. Life just gets busy.

So I put a cam in and some long tubes last year. Of course I lost the bottom. So my question is. Would it be beneficial to do a stall over gears or would it be best to do both?

08 dodge ram
2nd stage cam
Long tubes
Tune.

What yall think. As always thank you on advance

How tall are the tires? What is you plan for the truck?

Tires are the stock that come with it. 265 60r 20 I believe. Maybe 275.

It alrdy has 3.90 in it. It came from factory with 20 in rims.

My plans are just to have a streetable fast truck. I dont tow with it or anything. Really just my daily. But not even that cause I have a work vehicle too.

Gotcha, quick, nimble street truck...
Standard formula would be 2800 stall converter, 4:56 gear and DTT differential. I'm surprised at you losting the bottom end. The only time I felt I lost low end was being stock and switched to a Flowmaster muffler. And most all the bot ons and went to true dual exhaust. Do you have custom tuning (cmr)?

I do. I used Jay greene racing. Everything feels good on the truck. Just noticed that coming off the line I was a turd. Wasnt like that before cam and lt headers. I remember putting the long tubes on and thinking I lost some. Huge impact when I added the cam

Is it significantly stronger mid to high range?

An Edge 2800 tc will get the rpm's up into a more usable range.
