Whoa that was quick and alot of good info. I appreciate that guys

Well I already have the 4.11s soo ama stick to those and later change things around. I also have a 3800 triple disk which I will be sending off to PI to get it tight for boost.

Btw truck is a 6 speed soo it has that short 1st gear soo my truck from digs could be useless

I think just a cast wheel wil get it done, I dont think a race cover is necessary.

I would also considering dropping down from a 4.10 to like a 3.73 or 3.42 gear. It'll help load the turbo up better.

You also really don't need to get the heads ported. With the right turbo/cam/gears/stall you should have no problem hitting 600hp without digging too far into the motor.
Soo no head porting? Not really looking towards CNC porting because of the price, but I do know someone locally that does great hand porting for a good price. Should I leave them alone then? A lil extra HP is more than welcomed

I wouldnt bother at your stage personally. Run 1 more psi of boost and it will make up the difference.

Yea unless you are all ready sending them out for anything I wouldn't bother touching the heads. Our trucks need as much power and torque down low that they can get.

Yea if you were looking to get every available HP out of it than of course get them ported, but that can be a few bucks better spent somewhere else if you aren't going all out.
