First and foremost - thanks for all the replies. It´s also nice to see that I have brothers that know what they´re doing when it comes to engine mods
. Anyway I have changed goals slightly. After looking at Ross Pistons prices
, and re-evaluating this truck´s duties, I decided against Ross Pistons and I decided I´d rather have the engine run just slightly better than stock with 200 HP and 300 lb/ft tq. I feel that these goals are a lot more obtainable and reasonable considering this truck is going to be a daily driver, and a lot easier on my pocketbook
. Which leads me to my next questions: What kind of headwork would you recommend and how much does it generally cost? I realize it varies a lot by machinist, condition of head, etc. I´m just looking for rough estimates. Also do you think I could obtain my goal with some headwork, new cam, 4-barrel intake/carb, header, and exhaust? Thanx.
