the engine only has 150,000 i am just using this as a learning experience and whats wrong with dreaming, so basically what i am hearing is the bottom end doesnt need anything? should i stick with reworking the head, studs and a turbo
thanks for the words of wisdom

what is everyone using in the way of turbos? what would be best for my fueling upgrades i have been thinking about the phatshaft line maybe an 84mm the truck smokes a lot

84MM?!?! How about 64mm. 84mm is bigger than my bottom turbo on my compounds.

A 64 or 66 would suit you well.
