I'd go with the 270AH's. They work well N/A and will work well under boost.

 

Would I loose to much low end with those? I was originally looking at the 270s

 

Your gonna need a stall converter. But going S/C a stall converter will be needed. around a 2k stall would be fine.

 

Problem is tho it's not gonna be S/C for at least a year or two after the engine and trans it built, maybe even longer than that. 1800 is a pretty high rpm, so does that mean cruising at 45 or 50 around 1500 rpm will be pretty gutless? I plan on doing about a 2200 stall

 

Part of me is starting to think it's not worth it to even port the heads when I can just put that money towards boost

 

Look into Todd Warren custom grinds.

 

I'll look into those too. These are the heads I was thinking about http://www.modularheadshop.com/i-244...tegory:1268096. Nearly 3k just seems like to much to pay for ported heads and everything for the somewhat little gain. They also make some with there cams for 1800 for everything. There NA stage one cam only has a 108 LSA which seems like to much overlap for me. There supercharger cams have a 114 but they don't have much info on them. I'll look into Todd Warren's also tho.

 

108 is ideal for NA setup. I have SHM customs with a 109/110. I have split cams currently. Boosted applications are different. I have Fox Lake Ported 2v heads. I only did it because NA was still cheaper than trying to acquire all the Lightning parts to go boosted.

 

So finding a cam that will be decent both NA and boosted isn't going to happen? How much power are you putting out?

 

Hey guys, been looking at used diesels. Started with the 6.7 but man, that can turn out to be a huge mistake in the long run. If I'm understanding this correctly, the best Powerstroke investment would be a 6.0, then have bullet proofed. A 6.0 bulletproofed will go the distance, the 2005-2007 models. It's either that or a 6.2 gaser. The 6.2 gaser would be enough performance wise but a bullet proofed 6.0 diesel smashes the 6two in economy. I mean it's a huge difference and I want to use it for a daily driver. But yea, the 6.0 would need at least a stage two bulletproofing.

I just started looking into it, am I understanding this correctly ? The 6.0 really? Figured some of you guys might know a thing or two.
