Final decision!! What do you think?

I have made my final decesion on how I am going to build my 6.0L. This really boils down to me having too much time on my hands to think about stuff. I have always wanted a turbo motor so I am going to build my shortblock to handle that now so I can slowly gather parts for a turbo. I am going to buy a 390ci stroker kit from AES for $1,995 that comes w/Callies Crank, Callies Rods, CP dished pistons, Clevite bearings and rings. It will be a 3.825" stroke with a 4.030 bore, they have had this combo up to 900rwhp with a stock iron block w/ARP studs so it will handle more than what I plan to throw at it. Everything with the exception of a cam will be stock up top. All this fits into my budget of $8,500. I am also rebuilding a 9", rebuilding my suspension, and rewiring the whole truck. This should be a fun build!!! Sorry for all the threads but like I said, I have way too much extra time to think about this. If I post anything different send a vitrual pimp slap my way!!(with virtual baby powder of course)
