Bubba, thanks for the answer, just what I was looking for. My thoughts are, when towing, there is of course, from a stop pulling, but my biggest weakness is being able to keep the speed up on hills. I am thinking having the higher power curve of the 265deh would help here vs the 255.

Torque1st, can you tell me more about your cam, and why you choose it that way?

I was looking for the fattest torque curve I could get.

Cam specs:
HYDRAULIC ROLLER CAM
INTAKE DURATION (ADV)=260
EXHAUST DURATION (ADV)=268
IVO=24 BTDC - IVC=56 ABDC
EVO=68 BBDC - EVC=20 ATDC
INTAKE LIFT AT VALVE=0.510"
EXHAUST LIFT AT VALVE=0.555"
LOBE CENTER=110.0
OVERLAP=44.0

The torque curve is flat from 2000 to 3500 rpm and I only loose 50 lb-ft at 5000 rpm.
