Default There's gotta be more power here...

Grabbed a '99 2500 with a v10 for a good price. Seems to run fine, but I think there should be more power. Won't even power break the tires. With 10 cylinders and 8.0L, this doesn't seem quite right. Any ideas?

I test drove one of those from the dealer when they were new and it fell right on its face so I never looked at one again. My buddy has one and it too wont spinn a tire for anything I dont have alot of faith in these for doing speed work. But it is a great motor for towing

Well, found one definate problem. The cats are plugged almost solid. I'll hollow those out. That should help a ton.
