Message: [QUOTE="TyCorr, post: 1183226, member: 1451"] What are Y'all hillbillies doing to your motors? Rebuilding it like normal but putting billet rods in? Or we talking bed plates and the whole 9? I'm running 250/200s. Would like to turn them up with less worry. Maybe even compound them. Iiiiiiif I ever went bigger on injectors it'd be a 300/300...my truck is a driver, a hauler, and an occasional tow beotch. I think I'd tow more often if there wasn't always something wrong with it. I got a guy that has built tooooons of motors for people I know. Been doing tons of head/stud jobs on sick-fos. He said he can do a girdle, hardblok, and billet rods. I'm almost thinking I'd be better off going to swamps and knowing it's gonna be perfect. I've seen some bad luck lately and wondered what everybody was doing and having luck with. I have rebuilt a 7.3 before but it was a stock kit. Nothing fancy. But this is a different scenario. If you've built up, speak up. Maybe we can get a "recipe" of sorts to take the guess work out of it. So far we know that everything up to and including 250/200s can be ran with a stock fr motor with some cylinder head fortification. Namely those cheap azz springs, hd pushrods, and studs typically if you plan to hammer it occasionally. I don't really wanna get into support mods other than ones that relate directly to the engine and block. [/QUOTE]
