There's your problem, the 4.7L with 3.55s is a dog, that engine really does need 3.92s or 4.56s

My drunk friend is the narrator. Sorry, just can't take some people anywhere.

Sounds like you need a HEMI! j/k

But if you do have a 4.7 w/ 3.55s I'm sorry, those gears can even make a HEMI seem slow.

Thanks
How can you not power brake a truck...seriously, there's no weight on the rear. I can power brake my g/f's corolla for cryin out loud. Try applying less brake and more throttle.

Yeah but what would your truck feel like and what kind of trap speeds would you lay down with lower gearing?
Also, your performance aftermarket add-ons make it feel faster b/c they add power.
I'm talking about a stock Hemi truck.
