its going to be an DD n a play toy

 

6.0 would be fun, but if you wanna spend 3200 on a long block for a little more you can do an engine with forged internals.

 

thats not bad...my cuzin said he knows where to get an 408 for 5000...good buy?and a tranny frm performabuilt LV2 n 2800 stall like 3000...? will that work? hope it dont kill me to bad in gas

 

you're gonna have to knock it off with all this "fast, fun, & powerful with good gas mileage" mess ain't gonna happen... at least not the way you're talkin. maybe a healthy turbo with a t-56 for double overdrive would get ya there, but definitely not a blown 408 with a stall & low gears

 

lol...i know it wont get great but 16city 20 hi is ok....im thing bout doing this c what yall think....408, buit tranny with 2800 stall tune long tubes with stright pips ,k&n ,maf sensor..intake,3.73...?what yall think?

Dude, just make a decision on what setup you want to run. Then ask for our help to "fine tune it." It's simple, just start with the engine. TC or SC your 5.3, a 6.0, or a 408. Or you could run a naturally aspirated gas-guzzling 408. Pick one!?!?

 

to hard to pick from.....! i wana go fast but not at the pump every 10 mins

 

Then stick with the 5.3, beef up the drivetrain, and order one of kbracing's turbo kits. Problem solved. You'll still get ~20mpg highway as long as you stay out of boost.
