Well you fist have to calculate the CR as is then mess with gasket sizes to get it where you want.

I beleive im going to change my entire scope and go for an even bigger change. Im going to start by going to a 408CI and running twin t76's connected to a built 4l80e. Now my only concern is going to be swapping xfer case's as i would like to lose the AWD and be able to choose just like the trucks. Also the rear end, i wanna lose the open rear end and go to either a limited or full locking. Where is a decent place to have your truck tuned after some major changes like these. I can't think of any place local here that would go that in depth.

It will take me a bit more to get the $$ saved up for the turbos. I'll start a new thread for the build once i get everything. Really appreciate everyones input, you guys are a life saver!!
