Sounds like you know what you are getting yourself into... Never quite know when someone asks on these boards. They could be 16 and trying to hot-rod daddy's diesel! :yeah:

what are you gonna do with this truck? you prob will not need a girdle or bottom end studs unless your trying to make big power ( 700+). Same goes for the rotating and balance, now if you don't mind having the truck down and its free than go for it. but it is not needed

800hp for now, 1200hp some time down the road..... the truck is a project i am doing a 79 ford super cab 5.9l cummins etc, it's my dream truck and i finally have everything i need to get it done. so as far as the truck being down it's still in the process of being made, so i have a lot of time to get the engine right before it goes in the truck
