At least you'll still have 4wd in case you want to race from a dig on the street. I love rippin people outta the hole in my truck!

exactly!! iv ran her in 4x4 before! its really gonna be nasty with whats going in her!

james8997

ok guys, still outta state, cant get much done in the 1 and a half days im home on the weekend! but i did get the 6.0 to my house finally! im still doing some research, getting a rock solid plan together before i start buying parts! iv talked talked to a member on here about a fuel cell. a good friend of mine found a 14 bolt from a 4x4 for dirt cheap, hopefully it has 3.42s, would save me from having to buy a gear set. but anyways, heres a pic

if its from a 4x4 it has 6 lugs, and the axle shaft diameter of a 4x4 and 2x4 in our OBSs is different thickness. you could just get front break rotors from a Z71 and just buy 6 lug wheels

james8997

Um my wheels are 6 lug? And its a 8 lug axle, I'm gonna convert it to 6 lug

I remember you checking out my build, I cant wait to see how yours turns out. Good luck man and don't be afraid to ask questions.

james8997

hell yea man! how is yours doing?

james8997

Ok so today I pulled a head off, and dropped the pan off my 6.0, it needs a rebuild! Cross hatches are gone from the cylinder walls, water got in one and its a little rusty, the crank looks good so far, so I'm thinking a 370? Stock crank, forged rods and pistons, rework the 317 heads, and a cam, set up for boost. Thoughts?

That's what i would do.

So with a forged 370 in the plans, are you thinking about going with a larger turbo?

james8997

Of course Ima talk to Kyle and see what he thinks. But 1st I need to focus on the rebuild. Ima talk to Futral tomorrow and see what he thinks for pistons and rods
