Um you said street truck?

5k's arent necisserily a street item, along with main studs. Now it all depends on what the truck is gonna be used for. Need a little more info on the build. Benched pump?

Judging by what you have on your list so far:
5x.016's - 5x.018's
64/71/14 - 66/71/14 for singles
64 over an S400 of some size for twins

Ill stop here till we know more about where the build is going.

go with a good street strip cam...especially if u go with a big single like a silver bullet..it will help spool it quicker. i personally like the 64/65/12 over a s475. should spool good and pack one hell of a top end kick!. also titanium retainers and keepers are a must at 5k along with some HD valve springs... also a fluiddamper is gonna help spinning 5k.

5k's are the way to go for street trucks
