by "stock engine build" i meant that i'm using the stock engine from the truck and building on that...as long as its not shot to hell.

im going to build the engine myself with the help of this forum, a book that i have, and and couple friends that like working on cars.

no real reason i want to turn to 6500-7000. my only experience is a muscle car that i wound out to 7200 so if thats not going to work with the truck, thats cool. i have no problem running it at a lower RPM.

i wouldnt mind starting with a cam, intake, carb to start with but im guessing i cant get now and then also use those on the 383 build. what if i just started with an intake/carb and move that to the 383 build.....i dont know. but im here to learn
