Hey guys I have a quick question for everyone. I have a 3.73 LSD and was wondering what would be a good timing set up to give me a little more lower end power to balance out. Or what would be a good idea in general. Appreciate it! I heard 4-5 degrees would be best but I wasn't too sure.

Leave it stock. Messing with the cam timing only costs you power and fuel economy unless you get some custom tuning done on the ECU to go with the cam timing changes. These engines, like any modern one with electronic fuel and spark control, do not respond well to physical changes without accompanying software changes.
