Yeezuss,

've pulled upwards of 12K with my 2000 reg cab C2500! I was impressed with how it did. Better than my older 454's! IE a 2 bbl and a tbi, both of which were 235/385, and the V350 IIRC 255/330.

Reality is, 6-8K it will do just fine no matter where you go. BUT, it will lose 20-30% of its hp if you go to elevation ie the highest pointin yellowstone at 9K, over vail pass at 11K...........
