    Looking for big block advice.

    I think im gonna try to find a tbi just due to the terrain I will be in. And no serp belt either. I guess im SOL there and will have to source some parts for that. Reliable torque that's not going to cut out on me in the woods. I mean yes. I want power and all but toque is the priority.

    Looking for big block advice.

    Looking for big block advice.

    May stick with the stock crank ad rods if I can get away with it, since I have another stock crank to replace the broken one that was in it. Just unsure of how much it would be to buy a stroker crank vs having this stock one turned.

    Also I don't drive the truck in the winter. But still not sure what direction I want to go with this. If I run the tbi heads and intake on the older block I will bump up my compression ratio, correct?
