The only reason you "need" a built motor is if you tune it big enough to tear up the stock motor... You can tune it to run around 600 hp and be fine on the stock one and have a good running, fun truck.

It's all in the tuning. If you want a built motor I would use carillo rods, fingers oval bowl pistons, altered firing order cam, stud girdle, 10mm stroker pump, 100 over injectors, etc.

Sure...
If you also added those Exergy 60 over injectors and 10mm CP3 that are in your sig at the same time as the twin kit and didn't change the tune at all...
:rolleyes:

That set up is pretty much a towing twin kit, it's slightly bigger than a true towing twin set up but not an all out race kit. It'll make a ton of power if you want it to but it can also be tuned to make stock power output

I'd suggest contacting a few tuners or your preferred tuner and hashing out what you're looking to accomplish and get a proper tune "ASAP" that's what you need, not a built engine...yet

Good luck
Cheers

I say if you have the money go for it! What's the fun in having an 800hp setup tuned to 600hp? I think the post below is a great starting point for a very tough DD motor. Obviously there is a lot more a guy could do but that would keep you from the failures you're being warned about.
