advice please
 

I recently purchased a 98 dodge cummins with an automatic. It was a friend of mines from high school but a year ago he got shot and killed in Afganistan. I sold my 02 cummins so that i could buy this truck and build it up like Jon wanted to when he came home. As of right now it has the kdp killed,built trans,hx40 with wastegate plugged,4in. straight pipe,plate removed with afc gutted and tuned. I have the 4k gov. springs and a mack rack plug on order for it. Whats next? I want to be able to drag race and do sled pulls but still have a reliable truck to pull down the highway or go camping. Where should i go next or what should i change? i would like to see around 1200ftlbs. but be reliable as possible if possible.

Turbo Upgrade and some LBDP Injectors.

Ditto. or SDX injectors, your choice.

Also bumping your timing up a few degrees and head studs would be on my list in addition to what Luke suggested.

ok. i have the timing at 17* and what size injectors and where to find them and studs for cheap?

whats the truck look like? If i was building a memorial truck for a buddy, If it ran well and reliable, personally i would keep the engine like it was for a while and make sure it looked like the baddest shit on the street, that way everybody would see it and remember. The reason i say this is i knew a guy who was killed in a wreck and his friends built his truck like he had planned on it but spent so much on the engine and drivetrain that they ran out money for the paint and body. good luck, im sure your buddy would be proud:tu:

its got a flatbed on it now but its pretty beat up cause he was a rancher so i was just gonna do performance and just do some little things to make it look better. it needs new fenders a rear door and a paint job at the least.lol the truck has been pretty beat up but i am tryin to get it some tlc.

it can still look bad ass all beat up, just paint it od green with black steel wheels and throw on some 37 inch military tires:rocking:
