[QUOTE="mcss1986, post: 8489, member: 876"] I'm looking for a 2004 to 2006 4x4 ext short box for mostly general light duties and once in a while tow my 1986 Monte Carlo SS. Total trailer and load will be around 5500 lbs with two passengers and light cargo. -Will the small 8 (4.8) be able to do this without overworking it? -Are there any power enhancements to increase the torque and possibly improve gas consumption? The plan is to keep this truck for a long time, restore it to new appearance and keep it looking that way. I think I have automotive OCD and cant tolerate driving a junky vehicle. I'll post pics of my hobby car soon. Thanks Ed in Toronto [/QUOTE]
