If you want to make real big power building a 408 is you best bet! A simple 408 build should make you 450-500 at the wheels. I am stroking my 6.0 this winter. Hoping to start in about a month! Stock the 6.0 will make you some good power but if you want to really build an engine then you need to stroke it!

408's are pretty sweet.

Don't get screwed like I did and buy a 99-00 6.0 block with the longer crank flange! Then you will have to have Yank build you a $$$ converter and run a '00 2500 HD flex plate like I'm doing.

So I need a 01 up motor. And the 408 sounds good. Texas speed has a rotating assembly fairly cheap...that's probly my best option huh?
