Also, the 03-04.5 engines run alot cooler and get much better fuel mileage. It does take more $$ to get the same power output of them compared to the 04.5+ engines... if that is your goal.
You'll notice alot of the new trucks are making good numbers without aftermarket injectors.

The 600 series motor will reach 500+ a lot easier than than 305/555. As for rear wheel hp. Yes it probably is 270 on a 6 speed. But the auto robs about 80hp so the are about 245 rwhp

mine dyno'd at 348 with a bullydog pp, 4" MBRP and K&N FIPK, and a really really weak tranny. It was so weak that the dyno operator had troubles getting a good number.
