Default Got some performance questions.. need some help.

alright i have a 1999 Chevy K30. 7.4 454 4 door. long tube headers 4.56 gears on a 6 inch pro comp lift. 20x10 pro comp rims with 36x15.50 mickey tompsons.

its got some *** .. just not as much as i would have thought with a 454. yeah hits a heavy and big *** truck. but 440lbs of tourqe should move that truck. ha .

what kinda upgrades for a 454 could i use to help move this truck. or upgrades period.

The big restriction is going to be an undersized cam and poor flowing heads
Fix those and you should be happy
