If you are building it you could use a lq9. It really doesn't matter what you start with. The blocks are the same. Get a callies rotating assembly with a 4" stroke and build a 408.
Are you running boost or na.

the 8.1 isnt going to sit between the frame without modifications, its not just a drop in swap. the 6.0 has much more aftermarket support.
