Also how's the driveability with that cam and is a stall converter required? Would it be good for towing? I don't tow alot usually once or twice a month hauling scrap metal to the scrap yard. I've been thinking of going with the comp cams 35-324-8 cam. I'm going to build my 5.0 into a twin turbo 347 stroker eventually. By the way your truck sounds awesome. I straight piped mine also true dual 2 1/4 pipes with 6inch tips and flow-tech long tube headers.
How's the driveability and fuel economy with the 4.11s? I've thinking about putting 4.11 posi-trac in my 95 F-150 5.0. it's bone stock except for the headers and true dual catless straight piped exhaust. I use it for towing anywhere from 5,000 to 8,300 pounds of scrap metal I am eventually going to fully build the motor and twin turbo it.
With a 30in. tire, I'm doing 2600rpm at 80mph. If you drive over 85mph now, then I wouldn't recommend regearing because the speed limiter is taken from the transmission, so with a lower gear the transmission is spinning faster, and the computer thinks it's going 100mph.
@@michaelwall784 alright thanks for the info. I still run the stock 235/75/15 tires. The original owner swapped the factory 3.55 posi-trac for 3.08 open diff. At 80 I'm at 1,900rpm. It's sluggish and has no get up and go till it gets over 3,700 rpm and when towing I have to manually shift it cause it bogs way down and won't go anywhere if it's in drive. Now with the 3.08s I can get 19mpg while doing 90mph on a 1,200 mile round trip and the limiters are bypassed on my truck and I've hit 127mph. I like that it's fast but I'd rather it be a little slower and not have to rev the crap out of it while towing is why I'm looking at changing the gears.
Epic
Love it

How did you remove the speed limiter?
@@michaelwall784 ain't gotta clue it was done when I got it.
