Yea, you don't see me racing it do you? I drive it for what I intended it for. Not everyone has 10k+ to drop into a motor with rods a pistons. I'm 24 years old and have worked my a** off to have this truck, and the 50k that I've put into it already. Not to mention owning my own house and everything that goes with it. But hey.... top 5 fuel only, on a stock bottom end.... I'm just giving you a goal to work towards ;-)
meh...i know the size of my cock, no need to try to get on some list to make my life complete.
oh and everything else you mentioned....i'm in the same boat as you. well besides not being able to build the bottom end-i've had it done a few times now...
LOL
Not too worried about the rods , i think they should be good for no more than I plan on doing right now. Pistons scare me worse haha but it will be gated either way so hopefully it wont be too bad. Honestly I think I may go with the atmo for now seems how its quick and cheap.
Should it still be gated off an up pipe with the atmo? Or is there a better way? Also has a regulator
i am gated off an uppipe and it works fine.
i'm a big fan of compounds for trucks that get worked and are heavy like crew cabs. for a reg cab you could get away with a bigger single because the truck is lighter. also-dont compare the cost of a single with the cost of a drop in atmo. compound setups that make you big power like madmans or ncollins64 or thuglike or ingrahams cost 10k+
thats why i say-a single kit now with the option for a large atmo later is the way to go. easy to swap turbos and change up the setup to get exactly what you want.
