If snap aggro is important, let a pally tank the first mob or get a MD. You can still time your bloodrage effectively and open with a SS anyways. I get a little confused that 3/3 imp sunder isn't a "must-have" talent with any protection build to be honest.

I use the wrath trinket to keep crits coming and bleeds bleeding. It also means revenge, HS, shield slam etc all crit for more. I got ZA/Badges gear and last time i did Kara i had 1.7k TPS steady on endless rage bosses... You wont find any dps who can out threat that. You should add my spec for very nice threat generation.

Since points spent here will affect the cost of your devastate. Imp sunder + focused rage will bring the cost of devastate down to 9 rage. This is very handy at the start of a fight and I would assume more efficient than saving 2 rage those times you use heroic strike.

I need the heroic 5mans to build up rep/get money/get quests done which pretty much equates into getting properly geared. Your 8/5/48 spec is the one i'm running right now with pretty good results in 5man and in kara. But I can see how this can work well for well geared tanks that have progressed pretty far into the TBC content. Bookmarked for future use! =D its an interesting spec, but not for me at the moment.

I must say, enjoyed it! I already had the points in improved HS, but I added Anger management and the points in improved demo shout. The extra rage seems noticeable and it's probably no coincidence that I've been able to stay alive much easier (esp. during Prince phase 2) with improved demo shout. Huge thanks for the advice! As always, I love this forum. Keep up the great work! I’ve been trying this spec for the past few weeks in Kara. I must say, enjoyed it!
