I was thinking of going to EFI and buying the Ramjet 350 for my 72 K10. I go to the desert once in a while so I would be towing a 18' trailer. My buddy said I should get the crate carburated 502 because it makes 512 FT. lbs of torque @2800 rpm. I think the ramjet is 400 @3500rpm which he says is not useable for towing. Do you think I could put a differant cam in the ramjet to change it a little? Oh, and I have a stock ch465 4 speed tranny with 373 gears and 32 inch tires.

What would you guys do?

thanks, James
