What are you gonna do with the truck? Race? Work? . . . . . Both?

Manual? Auto?

Lots of coin,air fuel and luck...
300hp is fairly simple 400hp is a big jump 500hp takes alot of work and laughing gas usually

That's a loaded question right there!!! Twins, 3200lb gov spring, 60lb valve spring, 2.5 turns on power screw, bottom out smoke screw, bored cylinders, 20 over performance pistons (Mahle), inter cooler, port and polish head, 150 haws injectors, intake header with big input into the cooler 3" (probably not necessity), aftermarket fuel pin, 5" pipes, and probably some more.....I'm a rookie at this so I'm sure someone else will correct my comments... :-)
