First question you should ask yourself should be..."how soon do i plan to do up the turbo?" It may help You decide if You want to go with an LQ4 or LQ9. If i was staying N/A even w/ the gas for a good while id be all over an LQ9 with a complimenting cam,heads, LT headers, intake/tb/injectors and it would be a really fun truck to drive! ARP makes some good bolts but as for cyl heads im sure someone will eventually chime in with some experience in that section of the package!
