haha, I know, ALOT better than I anticipated really. For the few small snags its good and I really dont have regrets. Hoping the good things I hear will add up. I really dont want to have to get a dyno tune. Especially when I will upgrade the cam once I get springs and upgraded timing chain.

negative, if I was goin ***** out I woulda maybe bored .030 and done a 4" stroke but Im just trying to get a cammed 6.0 together. Shootin for 10-10.5 CR. Lookin at sittin on 10 right now and I need to get the heads ported before the donkey dick goes in a couple months later.
All I had them do was hone the bores, had 2 blown head gaskets and sat for God knows how long. Cant wait any longer!

I seen that you bought an 80E. It seems like it would have been easier to use a 60E from pre-gen III as it should just bolt right up with minor modification.

and right now what I need is the crank seal, rear main seal, and rear cover seal. I can probly reuse the rear cover seal I have cuz its in pretty good shape. Other than that I got those pistons covered (thank you) and I need main bearings still. Found a good deal and Summit just gonna have to wait till after Christmas I guess.

Other than that COMPLETE ASSEMBLY REQUIRED! and Blackbear Tune courtesy of Justin
Justin tuned my truck when it was stock, when was cammed and headers and even help me set-up my cos3 for turbo set. You can email him and he will answer your question.

eh, I went with something that I have personal proof that it holds up. I prefered the 80 so it'll last longer since I drive like an *** and I've roasted 2 60e's on stock trucks.
