Could probably pick up 5 spare shortblocks for what that baby costs hahaha. I'm sure it'll meet and probably exceed your expectations man. That thing looks serious!

Thanks guys, well see if it can perform as well as she looks!

As for $$, looking at 1600. 1700 for polished, 1800 for polished and coated exhaust housing. I plan to blanket the rear, so I just opted for polished.

As for 9s, well see man, you know i'm all about it! Once I get it (fingers crossed) I'll start building that 328 this winter.

As far as the diff is concerned, are you using the stock rack and pinion?

We have some decent options in the GTO. I think stock I have 3.46 or something.

For the turbo setups, isn't it usually better to stay in the lower gearing? Would there be a benefit to get a higher gear ratio like the 3.73, 3.91, 4.10?

What is your alls truck stock diff ratio?

Did you mean rack and pinion steering?
Or axle gear ratios?

Trucks usually come with 3.23, 3.42, or 3.73.
For turbos usually 3.42 or 3.73 work great since turbos need load to make boost.
