no cam yet, i'm leaving that up to Slowhawk who will be doing the install/tuning. I'm thinking about slapping the heads on it now and waiting till sping to get the 408. Can't decide. I'm worried about my tranny now too. I might do heads/cam now and pray to god i don't blow the engine before i can afford to buy a new one. the problem is, the installation charges are gonna kill me and there's no way i'll attempt it myself.
Ideally, i'd do heads/cam/headers now, run it a few times in the spring to see if i can get 12's or whatever. Then buy a shortblock and just sit on it till my stock engine blows.

Doesn't your truck have a 4l80e?
I put my heads on now cause I am still up in the air on what is next. I would say a 408 or 402 is definately coming, just a matter of when.
