Guys
the guy has a drag car! DING DING DING. Bells goin off to nobody else? Tow rig or not this man likes "go fast".
With that in mind, get as close to needing an engine build as possible, mod your stock turbo a little, to keep it sane, as its designation in your life is to tow, 15% over injectors, built trans(no kit, find a custom builder) efi live v2 (more fun that way, since you are in the industry of race, you, or a close buddy may know how to tinker with efi live already) Efi live v2 can run alot of different platforms, anything ls for starters, duramax honda subaru etc. If you dont want to tinker, you can buy a pre done built trans tow tune(s) You can quite easily get your truck up to 575hp for max effort. How much mula you wanna loosea? How reliable do you need it? Your steering system(linkage,pivots)will most likely need the usual upgrades. Im building what you "could" label as an ultimate stock/tow rig. Notice how i say stock and tow, now take special notice, 20g. Thats not what i paid for the truck. So read for some time to come. There is alot to take in. Remember, this actually is a science, when you break it down. So plan, every step of what you anticipate what you want, What it affects in the chain, and if you really want to go that route. IF YOU WANT TO MAKE THIS RIG A SOLID TOW RIG check out the oil cooling thread, you shou!ld reallyreally read that.
