Yep... someone has to go first.... guess I like to cut my own path.

Agreed that modifying a 4200 isn't cheap. My guess is a'06 up 4200 with a ported head and freeflow exhaust/good tune will make 320+ HP. Cost to mod, a set of head bolts and head gasket
+ time/cutters.

Back in the day.... just reset your time reference make now "the day" to bad I'm not closer to some of the older folks here to help much beyond getting parts ready to help get the swaps done.

Are there times when I get frustrated - yep.
